Bought an ST2 a few years ago that was in a motorcycle shop and the owner thought it needed a complete wiring harness. Fuel pump didn't run, but the voltage was there. When I dumped the gas out of the tank there were enough rubber bits in it to make a good number of hoses and it had apparently gotten into the pump and locked it up. DEFINITELY some sort of the wrong fuel line...

Yikes!! That is freakin' amazing. How the hell would a dealer do that? This fuel line isn't an unknown issue at Ducati dealerships.
Glad you made it Marc.

. I learned the hard way when the Dallas dealer put low pressure rated hose on the pressurized side inside the tank. When I got to Indy the line ruptured and the pieces were as thin as a balloon.
