The plastic tank cover on mine cracked at the mounting point with the left side cover. Also I could tell the body work didnt line up like it did before. If your body work looks fine you probably will not notice a difference.

My dealer is replacing all the body work around my tank and the tank itself under warranty.

 

Mine split about four inches in front of my seat.

 

Do you have pictures that you could share with us?

The bodywork on my '10 1200 started gapping early on, which led to speculation that it might be the dreaded tank swelling. Now I think it's just crappy fabrication of the plastic body panels.

 

Here you go dansz24:

After looking at the photos again I see that the split is quite a bit more than four inches.

 

Ouch!

 

Has ducati fixed this problem with the 2012 bikes? Im not about to shell out 35k for pikes peak bike if i have to f@ck around by taking it back for warranty claims! what the hell causes it in the first place?
