2011 Honda CB 600 FA-3-A 0.6L Petrol · AO11 EKJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having maintained a clean record across the last three inspections. The most recent test in February 2026 at 25,399 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the previous mechanical issues have been addressed. This follows a period of improvement after the 2023 test where a misting front shock absorber was identified, which does not appear to have progressed into a failure since. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fifteen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,700 miles per year. However, the data shows significant stagnation in usage during recent years; for instance, the bike covered only 64 miles between September 2022 and October 2023, and a mere 888 miles between January 2025 and February 2026. While this low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between use suggest stationary periods that can lead to degradation of rubber components and the spoilage of fluids. A buyer should specifically inspect the nearside front shock absorber that was flagged for oil misting in 2023 at 24,449 miles to ensure the seal remains intact. Given the history of failures related to worn tyres and loose drive chains between 2018 and 2020, a thorough check of the chain tension, sprocket wear, and tyre age condition is essential. Because the vehicle sits for long periods, verify the absence of cracks in the sidewalls and corrosion on the brake rotors, which are common issues for low-mileage vehicles of this age.
