      One day there will be firmware updates for your bike's ECU, etc. That day, we the mobile hackers, will get unofficial updates from various sources over the net, for better performance.

      Anyways, I think this recall is not really needed. If the bars are locked, how can you ride off anyways? I also had an alarm system on my Pulsar, and it could easily start even when handlebar's locked. But, you can't ride a locked bike, can you?

        no you can't. and i'm guessing Ducati want their customers to ride the bikes they buy.

          Loved this bit the most!!

          "And with computer systems as advanced as those starting to appear on bikes these days, surely it's only a matter of time before updates like that start to happen automatically, just as they do on computers, smartphones and so many other pieces of modern consumer electronics?"

          I can visualize it right now! Marvellous!!!

            does it mean in future bikes...........imagine you are riding a bike at say 100 kmph and you need to brake suddenly with your C-ABS equipped bike when suddenly your digital console shows "updating software....download and installing..........plz wait...."" lol...
