2016 Ducati M 1.2L Petrol · PT16 BAD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward deferred consumable maintenance. The most recent test in July 2025 at 10,540 miles passed despite an advisory for the front tyre being worn close to the legal limit. This marks a departure from the clean records seen in 2022 and 2024, suggesting that while the mechanical integrity remains sound, wear-related items are now reaching replacement intervals. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,054 miles per year. Between May 2022 at 9,364 miles and July 2025 at 10,540 miles, the vehicle covered only 1,176 miles over three years. This low usage indicates the bike likely sits stationary for extended periods. Long periods of standing can lead to degradation of rubber-based components, fluid oxidation, and potential corrosion of brake lines, which are not reflected in the low mileage figure. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the footrests and mounting bolts, following the 2023 failure at 9,655 miles due to an insecure offside front footrest. While this was rectified, the recurrence suggests a need to check all-related fasteners for loosening. Given the low mileage, it is equally vital to inspect for flat spots on tyres, seized brake calipers, and perished fork seals that often affect vehicles with minimal annual use. The front tyre advisory from 2025 confirms that immediate replacement is likely to maintain safe operating standards.
