2012 Triumph Trophy 1.2L Petrol · KV62 AHP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes. The most recent test in January 2025 at 38,242 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the motorcycle currently meets all minimum legal safety standards. This follows a clean result in 2022, suggesting that the current owner has maintained the vehicle without significant mechanical or structural failures over the last several testing cycles. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old machine, averaging approximately 2,700 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between March 2018 and March 2019, where the bike covered only 1,263 miles in a year. Since 2019, the usage has remained minimal, covering just over 4,500 miles over the following six years. While this low mileage suggests less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain components, it also increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components and fluid breakdown due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the brakes and tyres, as these showed recurring issues. The 2019 test at 34,011 miles flagged pitted and scored brake discs, while tests in 2016 and 2020 identified tyres reaching the legal tread limit. Given the low annual mileage, one must check for dry rot or sidewall cracking on the tyres, regardless of whether the tread depth appears sufficient. Additionally, inspect the suspension seals and brake lines for signs of perished rubber or weeping, which are common on low-mileage vehicles that sit stationary for long periods.
