2018 Honda CMX 500 A-X 0.5L Petrol · AP18 AEO

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthy condition. The most recent MOT test on 5 August 2025 at 1,594 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes in August 2024 and August 2023, suggesting the motorcycle has been maintained to a standard that meets all legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2018 model, averaging roughly 199 miles per year. Between the August 2023 test at 1,419 miles and the August 2025 test at 1,594 miles, the vehicle covered only 175 miles over two years. Such minimal usage indicates the bike has spent significant periods stationary, which often presents different risks than high-mileage wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by inactivity rather than wear. Check for perished tyres and brake discs that may have developed surface corrosion or pitting despite the clean MOT records. Verify that the battery holds a charge and inspect the fuel system for signs of varnish or degradation from long-term standing. Ensure the chain is properly lubricated and not seized, as low-mileage bikes often suffer from neglected drivetrain maintenance. While the MOT history shows no structural issues or suspension faults, a manual check of the fork seals for leaks is advisable given the vehicle's age and limited movement.
