2008 Honda CBR 600 RR-8 0.6L Petrol · HY08 OHA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record in its most recent inspections. The latest MOT test conducted on 30 May 2022 at 10,728 miles passed with no defects, indicating that all mechanical and safety components met minimum standards at that time. This follows a successful pass in March 2021 after a minor failure regarding a non-compliant rear registration plate. The usage pattern is exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 600 miles per year. The data shows a significant gap in mileage between the 2017 test at 7,812 miles and the 2019 test at 10,180 miles, during which only roughly 2,300 miles were covered. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing often lead to the degradation of rubber components, fuel systems, and internal corrosion on metal surfaces. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas previously flagged to ensure issues have remained resolved. The 2017 test noted a light misting on the nearside front shock absorber, and the 2019 test identified a slight fluctuation in front brake effort. You must verify the fork seals remain dry and free of leaks and inspect the brake discs for pitting or corrosion caused by lack of use. Given the age and low mileage, checking the condition of the tyres, brake lines, and fluid integrity is critical, as these components perish through age regardless of the distance travelled.
