2016 Ducati Monster 1.2L Petrol · AU65 EEG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 20 August 2024 at 15,211 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend suggests that the motorcycle has been maintained to a high standard and that mechanical and safety components have operated without immediate failure or significant degradation over the last several years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,500 miles per year. Between April 2021 and August 2024, the vehicle covered only 3,411 miles, indicating a history of infrequent use or long storage periods. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine, drivetrain, and brake pads, the significant intervals between tests—such as the sixteen-month gap between the two most recent entries—mean the bike is subject to age-related deterioration rather than mileage-related wear. Given the lack of recorded faults in the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-use storage. A buyer must check for dry cracking on tyres sidewalls and rubber hoses, as these degrade regardless of distance traveled. The suspension seals and fork boots should be inspected for leaks after periods of inactivity. Additionally, the brake discs should be examined for surface pitting or corrosion, which often occurs on vehicles that sit stationary for long durations.
