2021 Ducati Panigale V2 1.0L Petrol · WN21 XPX

This Ducati Panigale V2 has passed its most recent MOT on 2026-04-08 with no major defects, though the tester noted front tyres worn close to the legal limit. The overall roadworthiness trend remains stable, as the previous two tests—on 2025-04-07 and 2024-03-27—recorded no issues at all. The lack of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the front tyre tread warning indicates deferred attention to a consumable component. The most recent test was conducted just three months ago, which is well within the standard 12-month MOT cycle, ensuring the current condition reflects recent compliance. The recorded mileage of 5,122 miles over five years—roughly 1,024 miles annually—is exceptionally low for a high-performance motorcycle of this type. The gap between tests is consistent, with roughly 2,364 miles accumulated between each MOT, suggesting minimal usage rather than neglect. While low mileage typically correlates with reduced wear on mechanical components, the prolonged periods of inactivity could introduce risks such as battery degradation, tyre dry-rotting, or suspension seal deterioration. The absence of mileage spikes or abrupt jumps also implies the bike has not been subjected to aggressive riding patterns, which might otherwise stress components like brakes or drivetrain. Given the front tyre tread warning from the April 2026 test, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of all tyres for uneven wear or internal damage, as the rear tyres were not mentioned in the record. The suspension—particularly the rear—should be checked for fluid leaks or degraded bushes, given the bike’s performance nature and the potential for prolonged static loading. Braking systems, including pads, discs, and caliper binding, should be thoroughly examined, as high-performance bikes are prone to thermal warping or uneven wear. Finally, the electrical system, including the battery and charging circuit, warrants attention due to the low mileage, as prolonged disuse can lead to failure. Structural corrosion, while unlikely given the Ducati’s materials, should still be inspected in high-stress areas like the frame and exhaust mounts.
