APRILIA TUONO2008 · 1.0L Petrol

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 29 April 2025 at 17,435 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the previous two years, indicating the motorcycle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for an eighteen year old machine, averaging under 1,000 miles per year. Between 2 September 2023 and 2 May 2024, the odometer moved only 18 miles, suggesting the bike spent nearly a year in storage. A more active period followed, with 1,293 miles added between May 2024 and April 2025. This pattern of long-term standing is a critical factor for a buyer to consider. While the MOT record is clean, the history of prolonged inactivity necessitates a physical inspection of rubber and fluid components. A buyer should check for perished tyres, cracked brake hoses, and signs of fuel system degradation or gumming. The absence of advisories regarding corrosion or suspension wear is positive, but the low usage suggests that seals in the forks and rear shock may have dried out. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 2 September 2023 at 16,124 miles. Because no defects were listed for either entry, this likely represents a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical fault. Focus the physical inspection on the drivetrain and battery health, as these are the areas most affected by the documented periods of dormancy.
