1998 HONDA CBR1000F1.0L Petrol

The Honda CBR1000F passed its most recent MOT on 22 October 2025 at 24,561 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend and a currently roadworthy status. The single clean test result shows no recurring advisories or failures across the available history, so the vehicle presents no documented mechanical warnings at this time. The recorded mileage of 24,561 at the 2025 test equates to roughly 877 miles per year across the machine's 28-year life, confirming exceptionally light use for a 1998 large-capacity sports tourer. The MOT record supplied contains only this one entry, so no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between tests can be assessed; the sparse data simply reflects a low-mileage example with a clean recent pass. A buyer should still inspect the bike in person for age-related issues the MOT may not capture. Long standing periods at low mileage often allow suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake calipers to stiffen or weep, while tyres and coolant hoses degrade through time rather than distance. The tester noted no corrosion or structural concerns in October 2025, but check the exhaust system, subframe, and wheel bearings for hidden rust or play given the bike's 1998 build date. Given the absence of advisories and the low annual usage, previous ownership appears to have stored the machine rather than ridden it hard. Verify the actual condition of consumables such as brake discs, chain and sprockets, and lighting before purchase, as a single clean MOT does not confirm component life beyond the test day.
