2017 Honda NC 0.7L Petrol · SM17 AAU

The vehicle maintains a clean MOT record, with the most recent test on 29 November 2025 at 32,581 miles resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This consistent history of clean passes suggests a stable maintenance trend, indicating that the motorcycle has been subjected to regular inspections without recurring mechanical failures or significant advisory items. The absence of flagged issues across five consecutive tests points to a well-preserved machine that has not suffered from neglect or chronic component failure. The mileage accumulation shows a distinct shift in usage patterns over the last four years. Between September 2022 and January 2023, the bike covered only 17 miles, suggesting a period of storage or very light seasonal use. However, the pace increased significantly thereafter, with the odometer jumping from 1,861 miles in January 2023 to 32,581 miles by November 2025. This rapid accumulation of over 30,000 miles in less than three years indicates the bike transitioned from a garage-kept asset to a primary mode of transport, which is a positive sign for mechanical health as it suggests the engine and drivetrain have been kept in active rotation rather than left to seize through long-term disuse. Given the recent surge in mileage, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear consumables that may now be nearing the end of their service life despite the clean MOT passes. Check the condition of the drive chain and sprockets for signs of stretching or hooked teeth, as these components often require replacement within this mileage bracket. Examine the brake discs for thinning or scoring and verify that the brake fluid has been flushed recently, as the MOT test does not measure fluid degradation. Inspect the suspension seals for any signs of weeping oil, as the increased usage since 2023 will have placed significantly more demand on the fork seals and rear shock absorber than the bike experienced during its early years.
