2000 Honda CBR1100XX 1.1L Petrol · X854 AHU

The vehicle presents a positive roadworthiness profile, showing a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent MOT test in August 2025 at 30,835 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a streak of clean results dating back to 2022. This indicates that the mechanical issues previously identified have been addressed and that the bike is currently being maintained to a high operational standard. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 26-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,186 miles per year. There is a significant gap in records between May 2014 and March 2015, where the vehicle covered only 4,777 miles in a year, followed by a very slow usage rate of roughly 1,000 miles annually over the following decade. While this low mileage suggests light wear on the engine, it often implies that rubber-based components and seals may experience degradation due to long periods of standing rather than use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the steering assembly, as this was a recurring failure point. The tester flagged notchy or stiff steering movement in 2014, 2018, and 2019, followed by a failure for inadequate rear brake effort in 2021. Although the subsequent tests passed, the steering head bearings should be checked for any remaining play or resistance. Additionally, the history shows a pattern of neglecting brake pads and tyres until they reached legal limits, so a thorough check of the current brake pad thickness and tyre age is essential to ensure the current owner has not reverted to these habits.
