2020 Ducati M821 0.8L Petrol · AF70 AXC

The Ducati M821 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 11 April 2025 at 8,426 miles which recorded a pass with no defects. The prior test on 16 May 2024 at 7,232 miles also passed cleanly. Two consecutive annual tests with zero advisories indicate the previous keeper maintained the machine to a standard that avoided even minor wear flags. The odometer shows just 8,426 miles against a six-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 1,404 miles per year. The 1,194-mile gain between May 2024 and April 2025 reflects light, seasonal use rather than rapid accumulation. Sparse yet clean records leave little basis to suspect skipped maintenance, though long standing periods between rides can allow brake calipers to seize or tyres to degrade from age rather than abrasion. A buyer should still inspect the front and rear brake calipers for binding after storage, and check the suspension linkage and swingarm bearings for corrosion or stiffness from disuse. Examine the tyres for sidewall cracking despite adequate tread, and verify the chain and sprockets show no rust or tight spots from inactivity. The absence of recorded faults suggests sound previous care, but low mileage alone does not certify component health. A physical inspection of consumables and brake hydraulics remains prudent before purchase.
