2016 Ducati X Diavel 1.3L Petrol · WR16 UTK

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status following a clean MOT pass in July 2025 at 17,481 miles. This result indicates that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the history shows a momentary failure in 2024, the lack of recorded defects in the most recent test suggests the current owner is proactive in rectifying faults to ensure the vehicle meets legal standards. At 17,481 miles over ten years, this motorcycle has seen significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 1,750 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 1,800 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 2,800 miles in the following year. This low mileage profile generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking system, though it increases the risk of rubber-based component degradation and fluid stagnation if the bike sits stationary for extended periods. A physical inspection should focus on the nearside front shock absorber, which was flagged for light oil misting in July 2023 at 14,657 miles. Although the bike passed subsequent tests, the buyer must verify that the seal has not deteriorated into a significant leak which would compromise suspension damping. The 2024 failure regarding an incorrectly fitted front tyre and noisy exhaust suggests a previous lapse in attention to detail; therefore, a thorough check of the current tyre specifications and the integrity of the exhaust manifold for cracks or loose bolts is necessary.
