2008 Honda PES125 0.1L Petrol · AV58 CLO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean pass record over the last several years. The most recent test conducted on 23 August 2022 at 14,845 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical and safety components met all regulatory standards at that time. This suggests the motorcycle has been maintained to a consistent standard despite its very low operational frequency. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old machine, averaging approximately 825 miles per year. Between September 2019 at 8,340 miles and August 2022 at 14,845 miles, the vehicle covered 6,505 miles. While this low usage reduces typical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests can mask risks associated with stagnation, such as perished rubber seals, dried fluid, or internal corrosion, which are not always captured by an MOT alone. A buyer should specifically investigate the failure recorded on 24 August 2020 at 10,359 miles, where the rear brake lever failed for insufficient reserve travel. Although the vehicle passed immediately upon re-test, this indicates a potential issue with the hydraulic system or master cylinder that warrants close monitoring. Given the age and low mileage, a physical inspection of the brake lines for cracking and the condition of the fork seals and suspension-work is essential to ensure that long periods of standing have not degraded critical safety components.
