1999 HONDA CB7500.7L PETROL

The most recent MOT on 2024-05-08 confirmed the vehicle passed with 12,171 miles, recording no defects. This aligns with the 2020 and 2015 MOTs, which also showed no issues. The 2017 MOT noted a slightly damaged rear tyre valve stem (4.1.2c) and a non-excessive exhaust leak (7.1.1b), both resolved by 2020. The 2016 MOT repeated the valve stem defect, suggesting a recurring but minor concern. The defect pattern shows no worsening trends. Issues from 2017 and 2016 were addressed, as evidenced by the clean 2020 and 2024 results. The vehicle has not accumulated significant wear in recent years, with no safety-critical faults reported in the last four MOTs. However, the 2017 exhaust leak and valve stem damage indicate potential maintenance needs, though these were not deemed serious enough to fail the test. The vehicle’s mileage of 12,171 miles over 27 years equates to roughly 451 miles per year, far below average for its age. This low mileage could reflect light use, infrequent operation, or extended periods of storage.
