Ducati Xdiavel: Powertrain
Affects Ducati Xdiavel · 2016–2017 — about 224 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain motorcycles, the final drive pulley retaining nut and the side stand plate fastening screw could loosen over time. If the final drive pulley nut becomes loose, the countershaft could spin on the belt primary drive pulley resulting in loss of power transmission to the rear wheel. If the lower side stand plate screw were to loosen, it could damage the side stand sensor switch, resulting in an engine stall, or if the bike were to be parked on the side stand, the side stand plate could deform/ break due to the excessive overload, causing the bike to fall. Both of these conditions could increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the lower side stand plate fastening screw with a more resistant screw in order to increase the tightening torque, and install a new washer made with a harder material, and will tighten the final drive pulley retaining nut to an higher torque.
