2015 Ducati Multistrada 1.2L Petrol · YP15 ABX

The Multistrada currently holds a valid MOT pass dated 18 March 2026 at 42,270 miles, so it is road legal today. The maintenance trend is mixed rather than clearly stable or worsening. The March 2026 pass followed a one-day failure on 17 March 2026 for front brake effort fluctuation and a worn rear lower suspension bush; the bush remained as an advisory on the pass. Recurring minor and moderate faults appear, but none are structurally terminal. The mileage pattern is irregular for an eleven-year-old machine. In June 2024 the bike showed 63,641 miles, then dropped to 39,996 miles by March 2025 and stayed near 42,270 through March 2026. That 23,645-mile reversal between 2024 and 2025 suggests a replacement speedo, a clerical error, or a different recorded unit; the low average of roughly 3,843 miles per year overall implies light use or long standing periods. Sparse early records mean we cannot fully judge consumable care before 2024. A buyer should physically check the front brake system for caliper binding or disc warping, since the tester flagged excessive brake effort fluctuation in March 2026. The rear lower suspension bush shows progressive attention: advisory in 2026, no earlier mention, so inspect for pin corrosion or play. The June 2024 failure for notchy steering head bearing was cleared on retest, but verify the bearing for stiffness now. Tyres sat close to the legal limit in June 2024 front and rear; confirm current tread and sidewall condition given the standing time. Low mileage and a clean 2025 test reduce drivetrain worry, but the one-day brake and suspension failure shows previous owner deferred basic fixes until test day.
