2018 Ducati X Diavel 1.3L Petrol · FJ18 NFM

The 2018 Ducati X Diavel presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 26 June 2025 at 14,091 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of four consecutive annual passes with zero advisories or failures since the earliest entry in the record. Annual mileage sits at roughly 1,761 miles, which is low for an eight-year-old machine. The record shows 10,127 miles at the 23 March 2022 test, rising to 10,498 by 17 May 2023, then 11,090 on 9 May 2024 and 14,091 by June 2025. The jump of just under 3,000 miles in the final year is the largest single-period gain, yet total accumulation remains modest and the gaps between tests are narrow. The clean sheet across all entries indicates the previous keeper kept the bike to a light-use schedule with no deferred consumable replacements flagged by testers. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished history. Low mileage coupled with long standing periods risks degraded suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and seized brake calipers that a pass with no defects will not expose. The DVSA record confirms no corrosion, exhaust, or structural integrity concerns were raised, but the test does not assess internal engine wear or clutch slip. Given the spotless MOT trail, previous ownership points to basic but adequate care rather than neglect. Verify brake disc thickness, fork seal condition, and coolant integrity in person before purchase, as these items fall outside the scope of the annual test and matter on a low-mileage Ducati left idle for stretches.
