I went by the dealership a week before the year warranty was up and they said they would contact Ducati and get back to me. They called me back about 5 weeks later and said I need to bring the motorcycle in because Ducati wanted to see pictures. I road it over there today.
I figured they were going to say I cracked it by accidentally kicking it when I got on/off the bike, so I was surprised that first thing he asked was if I installed the blinkers. When I answered yes he said that they probably won't cover it. He also said that they won't like that I modified the DP short tail kit by cutting off the extra metal that goes out past the license plate.
I took a look at the blinker and it has a metal "L" bracket that goes from the mounting hole in the plastic to a screw under the seat that keeps it firmly mounted. I think the bracket was putting pressure on the plastic and eventually cracked it.
So if anyone out there has the DP Blinkers and DP Short Tail Kit, you may want to make sure the bracket is not pushing too hard against the plastic. I don't know, but maybe the bracket isn't necessary.
