2012 Honda NSC 110 WH-B 0.1L Petrol · EK12 ADO

The most recent test on 7 September 2022 at 37,084 miles returned a pass, but only after an initial failure the same day for a serious fluid leak from the rear shock absorber. The maintenance trend shows improvement from earlier faults, with the 2021 and 2022 failures both rectified and the latest certificate clean. Recurring brake and rear-end issues across the record suggest intermittent neglect rather than a structurally declining machine. Recorded mileage stands at 37,084 miles against a 2012 build date, averaging roughly 2,649 miles per year. The scooter covered just 4,722 miles between the March 2020 test at 29,709 miles and the September 2022 test, with a two-year gap between 2020 and 2021 testing. Low annual use implies long standing periods, which typically accelerate rubber perishing and fluid degradation despite minimal mechanical wear. A buyer should physically inspect the rear suspension for weeping or failed shock seals, given the September 2022 serious leak. The March 2021 failure for inadequate rear brake effort and the 2020 advisory for worn rear brake drum point to chronic rear braking neglect; check the drum, shoes, and caliper freedom. Verify headlamp aim and rear tyre tread depth, as both drew failures in 2021 and may reflect skipped basic upkeep. No structural corrosion or exhaust emissions failures appear in the record, which is favourable for a 14-year-old machine. The sparse history shows no worsening pattern, yet the repeated rear brake and shock faults warrant a hands-on check before purchase.
