1999 Honda NT650V 0.6L Petrol · T670 AOK

The Honda NT650V presents a broadly roadworthy status as of the 9 September 2025 test at 96,643 miles, where the DVSA record shows a pass and a same-day fail with no defects logged on either entry. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available history, with four consecutive passes between May 2022 and September 2025 and no advisories or mechanical faults flagged by testers at any stage. Recorded mileage sits at 96,643 against a 1999 build, averaging roughly 3,579 miles per year. The bike covered only 371 miles between the May 2023 test at 90,298 and the May 2024 test at 91,140, then added 5,503 miles by September 2025. Such low annual use over 27 years suggests extended standing periods, though the sparse five-entry record limits deeper wear analysis. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake calipers, as long idle spells on a machine of this age commonly provoke seized components and degraded rubber that a clean MOT will not reveal. Structural integrity around the frame and exhaust mounting points warrants close checks for corrosion, given the vehicle's age and likely outdoor storage. The same-day pass and fail at 96,643 miles with no defects noted points to an administrative or documentation anomaly rather than a mechanical concern. Verify the V5C and DVSA portal before purchase to confirm the true status, then prioritise a pre-sale road test to confirm braking and steering response.
