2016 Husqvarna 701 0.7L Petrol · EJ16 ONU

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its three recorded inspections without failure. The most recent test conducted on 18 May 2023 at 13,933 miles resulted in a pass despite noting a slight fluctuation in front brake effort. This specific indication often suggests early-stage rotor wear or minor hydraulic inconsistency rather than a catastrophic mechanical failure, indicating the braking system remains within operational parameters for its age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a decade-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,393 miles per year. Between the June 2019 test at 11,075 miles and the June 2021 test at 13,268 miles, the bike covered 2,193 miles over two years, followed by only 665 miles leading up to the 2023 inspection. This low usage suggests the machine has been used sparingly or sat stationary for long periods, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals despite the lack of mechanical wear. A buyer should physically inspect the front brake discs and calipers to determine if the fluctuation noted in 2023 has resulted in surface pitting or thinning. Given the low annual mileage, it is vital to check the tyres for flat spotting or dry cracking, as rubber often ages faster than the tread wears wears down. Additionally, examine the suspension seals and chain for signs of corrosion to ensure that long periods of standing have not caused internal oxidation or perished seals within the drivetrain components.
