APRILIA RSV2013 · 1.0L Petrol

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently stable and positive maintenance history. The most recent test conducted in April 2025 at 14,861 miles resulted in no defects recorded, mirroring the trend of clean passes over the previous five years. This consistency suggests that the mechanical and structural components have been maintained to a standard that avoids recurring failures or developing advisories during the testing process. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,143 miles per year. There is a notable gap in records between June 2020 and February 2022, where the mileage dropped from 20,218 to 12,871 in the recorded discrepancy. Usage has slowed significantly since 2022, with only 990 miles covered in the last three years. This low frequency of use indicates the vehicle has spent long periods in storage, which often places different types of stress on rubber components and fluids rather than traditional mechanical wear. Because the MOT history shows no mechanical failures or structural corrosion, a buyer should focus on risks associated with low-mileage long-term storage. A physical inspection must check for perished rubber hoses, cracked fork seals, and degraded brake lines that occur due to age rather than distance. The brake discs should be examined for surface pitting or corrosion, and the tyres must be checked for flat spotting or sidewall cracking, as tread depth likely remains sufficient despite the age of the rubber compound.
