2001 DUCATI DUCATI Engine And Engine Coolingengine Problems

I OWN A DUCATI MONSTER S4 - YEAR MODEL 2001. ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT ON THE MOTORCYCLE INCLUDES A GS BRAND BATTERY - MODEL #GT12B-4. LAST YEAR, ON A HIGHWAY, MY MOTORCYCLE WAS SPILLING GAS ONTO THE ROAD CAUSING MY BACK WHEEL TO SLIP. WITH NO SHOULDER PRESENT, I HAD TO WAIT TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY BEFORE I COULD STOP. UPON DOING SO, I FOUND THAT MY BATTERY HAD LEAKED AND COMPROMISED THE GAS LINE CAUSING THE LEAK. THE BATTERY ACID DAMAGED PARTS OF THE ENGINE AS WELL. THE BATTERY WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY AND THE ENGINE IS STILL AWAITING PARTS FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I BELONG TO A CHAT GROUP FOCUSED ON THIS TYPE AND MANUFACTURER OF MOTORCYCLE AND HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A LENGTHY DISCUSSION REVOLVING AROUND THIS COMMON ISSUE. AS MANY AS 13 PEOPLE IN THE DISCUSSION ALONE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS FAILURE. LUCKILY, NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT BY IT...

WHEN APPLYING BRAKES THERE WOULD BE CHATTERING COMING FROM FRONT BRAKES. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER FOR REPAIRS, BUT PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. *AK CONSUMER STATES THE HIGHBEAM INDICATOR WAS INOPERATIVE, THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK AT THE REAR OF CYLINDER HEAD AND CONSUMER WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THERE WAS SWING ARM DAMAGE.*JB
