1987 HONDA VF750C0.7L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on May 3, 2018 at 30,456 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This streak suggests the motorcycle has been maintained to a high standard at least during the recorded period, with no evidence of mechanical degradation or structural corrosion being flagged by the DVSA testers. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 39-year-old machine, averaging approximately 781 miles per year. Between June 2012 and May 2018, the vehicle covered only 693 miles, moving from 29,763 to 30,456 miles. This minimal usage indicates the bike likely sat stored for long periods or used only for occasional trips. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine de-stress components, it introduces risks related to age-related degradation of rubber components, seals, and fluid chemistry which are not always captured in a standard MOT test. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components susceptible to dry rot despite low mileage. The stagnant history suggests that brake lines, tyre compounds, and fork seals may have perished or hardened due to lack of heat and movement. Inspect the frame for hidden structural rust, particularly around the pivot points, as long-term storage can sometimes mask internal corrosion. Given that the last recorded entry was over eight years ago, the current state of the fuel system and braking hydraulics requires a thorough verification before any significant road use.
