2015 WK Bikes 125 0.1L Petrol · WD15 UKT

The vehicle presents an inconsistent maintenance history that suggests a period of reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test in October 2023 at 8,064 miles, this followed a significant failure just one month prior that revealed multiple mechanical and safety defects. The trend shows a sharp decline from a clean record in 2021 to a state of neglect in 2023, though the immediate repairs appeared to rectify the primary failures. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old motorcycle, averaging only 733 miles per year with a total of 8,064 miles. There is a notable two-year gap between the February 2021 test at 5,010 miles and the September 2023 failure, during which the vehicle covered only 3,054 miles. Low usage often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components, which is evidenced by the cracked sidewalls noted on the rear tyre in the September 2023 records. A buyer must scrutinise the braking system and suspension systems, as these were recurring points of concern. The September 2023 failure highlighted rear brake pads worn to the metal and a damaged rear disc, while the front pads were nearing their legal limit by October. Furthermore, the nearside front shock absorber showed oil misting and was previously flagged as insecurely attached, indicating potential seal failure or mounting issues. The drive chain was also flagged as worn or excessively loose across multiple tests, requiring a thorough inspection for stretch and sprocket wear despite the low mileage.
