1993 Ducati 907 0.9L Petrol · L268 DOK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 4 September 2025 at 22,700 miles with no defects recorded. This represents a stable maintenance trend compared to previous years, as the mechanical issues identified in earlier tests appear to be resolved. The clean sheet from 2025 suggests that the immediate safety and environmental requirements have been addressed prior to the current inspection date. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 33-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 688 miles per year. There is a significant nine-year gap between the April 2016 test and the September 2025 test, during which the vehicle covered only 456 miles. This pattern indicates the bike has spent long periods in storage rather than undergoing regular use. While low mileage reduces wear on engine components, it often introduces risks related to rubber degradation, perished seals, and internal corrosion that an MOT test does not fully detect. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the drivetrain and braking system. The July 2014 failure at 20,533 miles highlighted a worn drive chain and rear sprocket, while the 2013 test noted a worn nearside lower chain. Although the 2025 test passed, the low-frequency use means the chain may be seized or the sprockets may have uneven wear from sitting. The 2016 advisory regarding offside rear brake pads near the minimum limit necessitates a check of current pad thickness and the condition of the discs. Given the age and long intervals between use, the fuel hoses, brake lines, and fork seals should also be inspected for signs of cracking or fluid leakage.
