2016 Ducati Scrambler Italia Independent 0.8L Petrol · FC16 FXA

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean MOT history across five tests. The most recent inspection on 15 May 2026 at 5,357 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded, continuing a trend of perfect results from previous years. This consistency suggests the mechanical and structural components have remained within operating parameters without triggering any failures during the testing process. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 536 miles per year. Data shows significant gaps in usage between the September 2020 test at 2,524 miles and the April 2022 test at 3,272 miles, where the bike covered only 748 miles in nearly two years. The jump of 1,285 miles between 2024 and 2026 indicates recent activity, but while low mileage preserves the drivetrain and brake components, long periods of standing often lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts and fluid-related issues not visible. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low mileage and the lack of mechanical failures in the record. Check the tyres for dry rot and sidewall cracking, as the tread depth likely remains high despite the low mileage. Inspect the brake fluid for moisture contamination and examine the fork seals for leaks that may have occurred during long stationary periods. Since the MOT record shows no advisories for corrosion or suspension wear, verify the chain tension and sprocket condition to ensure the bike has been properly maintained despite the infrequent intervals of use.
