2011 Kymco Pulsar 125 0.1L Petrol · WK61 BFE

The 2023‑06‑07 MOT passed the 2011 KYMCO PULSAR 125 with only a minor advisory that the drive chain is slightly loose, indicating that the vehicle is currently roadworthy. Earlier tests in 2021 recorded multiple failures – the rear suspension arm was likely to become detached, the brake clevis joint was insecure, swing arm play was present and the stop lamp was insecure – but these issues have been corrected, showing an improving maintenance trend. The recorded mileage has risen from 3,730 miles at the 2014 test to 14,744 miles by the 2023 test, averaging roughly 983 miles per year over the 15‑year lifespan; a notable increase of 3,327 miles occurred between the 2019 test at 8,670 miles and the 2020 test at 11,997 miles, while the subsequent rise from 13,968 miles in 2021 to 14,744 miles in 2023 added only 776 miles, suggesting periods of reduced use. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension arm mounting, the swing arm for excessive play, the brake clevis joint and any associated bolts for tightness, and verify that the drive chain tension matches the manufacturer’s specification, as these components have been flagged repeatedly. In addition, check that the fuel cap can be opened and closed as required, confirm the presence and condition of the rear reflector, examine the front roller brake for consistent effort and any abnormal fluctuation, and look for signs of structural rust or corrosion on the frame, which were not recorded but may affect long‑term durability.
