2011 Pulse XF 125 GY-2B Adrenaline 0.1L Petrol · WX11 HHU

The most recent MOT on 9 July 2025 recorded a failure, chiefly for rear tyre tread below the 1.0 mm minimum, a minor exhaust leak at the cylinder‑head bolt, a broken side stand and a very stiff front brake lever. Although the same date shows a pass for other items, the outstanding failures mean the motorcycle is not road‑worthy until those defects are remedied. Recurring front‑brake lever stiffness, progressive front‑shock oil leakage and persistent corrosion indicate a deteriorating maintenance trend despite intermittent passes. Mileage totals 19,829 mi after fifteen years, averaging roughly 1,300 mi per year – markedly low for a 2011 model. The jump from 12,813 mi on 16 June 2023 to 17,841 mi on 3 June 2024 reflects a five‑thousand‑mile increase in twelve months, then a further 1,935 mi by July 2025. The overall low utilisation suggests limited wear on consumables but also hints at periods of inactivity that can accelerate corrosion and component fatigue. A prospective buyer should verify the rear tyre tread meets the legal 1.0 mm threshold and inspect the front brake lever for smooth operation. The near‑side front shock absorber must be examined for any fluid seepage beyond the light mist noted in earlier tests, and the side stand should be functional and securely mounted. The exhaust system requires a seal on the cylinder‑head bolt, while the frame’s corrosion, noted repeatedly, must be assessed for any loss of structural rigidity. Finally, confirm that the steering head bearing free play, rear brake binding, and all lighting and indicator functions are within specification, as these items have featured repeatedly in the MOT history.
