2015 Ducati F848 0.8L Petrol · CE15 CGO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 11 June 2026 with 12,120 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the latest test introduced a new advisory regarding the nearside front shock absorber. The tester identified a light misting of oil on the nsf fork seal, which indicates the beginning of seal failure that requires monitoring but does not represent an immediate mechanical failure at this stage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,100 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the April 2022 test at 9,728 miles and the October 2023 test at 12,066 miles, representing only 2,338 miles covered over eighteen months. This usage pattern suggests the bike likely sat for long periods, which reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine but can lead to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and internal fluid oxidation despite the low odometer reading. A buyer should physically inspect the nearside front fork seal to ensure the oiling is not progressing into a significant leak that could compromise suspension damping. Given the long periods of inactivity indicated by the mileage data, it is vital to check for perished tyre sidewalls, corroded brake discs, and moisture in the brake fluid. The 2023 failure for a non-functional rear indicator was a simple electrical fault that was rectified, but the overall electrical loom should be verified for any signs of corrosion resulting from long-term storage.
