2018 Honda CBR 0.6L Petrol · AE18 UFW

The 2026‑02‑25 MOT at 13,964 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable, non‑deteriorating condition. The mileage has risen steadily from 10,778 miles in July 2022 to 13,964 miles by February 2026, an average annual increase of roughly 800‑1,000 miles, well below the typical 12,000‑15,000 miles per year for a vehicle of this age. Gaps between tests are consistent with normal usage – for example, the 13‑month interval between the July 2024 and August 2025 tests added 1,129 miles, while the five‑month gap between August 2025 and February 2026 contributed only 489 miles. A buyer should therefore focus on the single advisory noted in the August 2025 test – a slightly stiff or notchy front steering head bearing – and verify the condition of the front suspension bushes, coil springs and any associated mounting hardware. Inspection of the braking system is advisable, checking for binding rear calipers, wear on brake discs and pad thickness, as well as the overall state of the exhaust system and structural integrity for rust or corrosion, especially given the vehicle’s eight‑year age despite low mileage. Finally, while the MOT history shows no recurring serious mechanical faults, the buyer should also examine tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition and any signs of long‑term standing wear such as suspension sag or flat‑spotting, to ensure that the low mileage has not masked underlying neglect.
