2007 Himo GY 125 0.1L Petrol · AY07 CYF

The vehicle is currently in a questionable state of roadworthiness with a maintenance trend that suggests sporadic care. While it passed its most recent MOT on 17 March 2025 at 10,764 miles, the tester flagged several concerning issues. The bike failed on the same day due to a loose drive chain locking device and a cracked exhaust mounting bracket. Even after passing, the record shows the front brake fluid level was invisible because a bolt was wedged in the sight glass hole, and the rear fluid was close to the minimum. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 19 year old machine, averaging roughly 567 miles per year. However, the record reveals significant periods of inactivity. There is a massive gap in testing between July 2012 and June 2020, during which the odometer only moved from 9,367 to 10,570 miles. This pattern of long-term standing often leads to perished rubber components, seized calipers, and fuel system degradation. A buyer must scrutinize the braking system and suspension. The 2020 test noted oil misting on the front shock absorbers, and the 2010 record showed a complete seal failure. The recurring issue with brake fluid visibility and levels in 2025 suggests a lack of basic fluid maintenance. The drive chain has a history of instability, having been flagged as excessively loose in March 2011 and excessively tight in May 2011, followed by a locking device failure in 2025. The repeated absence of lights and indicators during tests in 2020, 2021, and 2025 is highly unusual and suggests the vehicle may have been stored stripped or neglected. Inspect the exhaust mounting for structural integrity and verify that the brake system is fully functional and bled. Given the age and the history of suspension leaks, a full check for chassis corrosion and bearing play is essential.
