2018 Ducati Multistrada 1.2L Petrol · FN68 XFT

The 2018 Ducati Multistrada presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 26 June 2025 at 12,732 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across all five available MOT entries is stable, with every annual examination returning a pass and zero advisories noted by testers. Annual mileage sits low for an eight-year-old machine. The record shows 4,842 miles at the 18 September 2021 test, rising to 6,762 by 10 September 2022, 7,961 by 6 September 2023, 12,022 by 3 September 2024, and 12,732 by June 2025. That averages roughly 1,592 miles per year. The jump from 7,961 to 12,022 miles between September 2023 and September 2024 accounts for over half the bike's life mileage in a single year, yet no faults emerged. The sparse, defect-free history gives no evidence of skipped basic upkeep or neglected consumables. A buyer should still inspect the machine in person despite the unbroken pass record. Low standing mileage and the 2023 to 2024 usage spike mean suspension linkage, fork seals, and brake calipers may have seen uneven cycling. Check for weeping fork seals, free movement in the swingarm bearings, and any corrosion on structural frame welds or the exhaust headers that a short test bay glance might miss. Tyres and brake discs will likely show age-related hardening rather than wear, given the low annual cover. Verify tread compound pliability and disc scoring. The DVSA data implies a carefully stored, lightly ridden motorcycle, but physical inspection remains the only way to confirm the absence of latent issues the MOT format does not capture.
