2009 Honda CB1000R 1.0L Petrol · AO09 NLC

The 2009 Honda CB1000R shows a stable roadworthiness profile from its most recent MOT on 25 June 2022 at 34,878 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. That test sits over four years behind the present date of 9 July 2026, so the machine has stood without a valid MOT since mid-2022. Five straight annual passes from 18 July 2018 through that date, each with zero advisories, confirm a steady rather than deteriorating condition. At 17 years of age the odometer reads just 34,878 miles, an average of around 2,052 miles per year. The chronology confirms light use: 31,848 miles on 18 July 2018, 33,361 by 10 July 2019, 33,640 on 17 July 2020, 34,516 on 2 July 2021, and 34,878 on 25 June 2022. Annual increments never exceeded 1,668 miles and fell to 362 miles in the final recorded year. The dataset is sparse beyond these five entries yet wholly free of gaps longer than thirteen months and absent of any recorded fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components that low mileage and prolonged storage can hide. The MOT history flagged no concerns with fork seals, swingarm bearings, brake calipers, or structural integrity, but a motorcycle of this vintage may suffer weeping forks or corroded exhaust hangers from damp standing. Check the chain and sprockets for stretch, brake discs for lip and scoring, and tyres for sidewall cracking despite adequate tread. Verify the suspension linkages and frame joints remain free of corrosion that could undermine long-term rigidity.
