2004 Honda CBR 600 F-4 0.6L Petrol · NLZ 3165

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by consecutive clean passes across the last five years. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 19,011 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, continuing a trend of consistent mechanical presentation. This suggests the motorcycle has remained in a functional state and has not suffered from the progressive degradation typically associated with neglected older machinery. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old machine, averaging approximately 864 miles per year. Between March 2021 and July 2025, the vehicle covered only 143 miles, moving from 18,868 to 19,011 miles. This pattern indicates that the bike is used very sparingly or has sat for long periods between tests. While this limits wear on the engine internals and drivetrain components, it introduces specific risks related to age-related decay of rubber components and fluids that do not manifest through mileage alone. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components affected by low-mileage storage rather than mechanical wear. Focus should be placed on cracking in the tyres, perished brake lines, and leaking fork seals which degrade over time regardless of distance. Check the frame and swingarm for surface corrosion or structural rust, as the MOT only flags these when they threaten failure. Given the intermittent usage, verify that the brake fluid and fuel have been replaced recently to prevent moisture contamination and internal corrosion within the fuel system or calipers.
