2015 Honda CBF 0.1L Petrol · BF65 MVS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While the motorcycle passed its most recent test on 21 August 2025 at 8,062 miles, this followed a failure just five days prior. That failure highlighted multiple safety concerns including thin front brake pads, a loose drive chain, and a failed rear stop lamp. Although these were rectified for the pass, the recurrence of mechanical faults suggests that components are only addressed once they reach the point of legal failure limits. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 733 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between January 2021 and March 2022, where the vehicle covered only 324 miles in over fourteen months. More recent usage has increased between 2023 and 2025, with over 1,000 miles covered in short periods. This low-frequency operation often leads to degradation of rubber components, dry seals, and flat-spotting of tyres despite the low overall mechanical wear. A buyer must specifically inspect the front braking assembly and the drivetrain. The record shows a worn front brake disc in 2025 and a history of thin pads since 2023, indicating the system is nearing replacement. The drive chain and sprockets have been flagged for wear and excessive slack in 2023 and 2025, requiring a thorough check for stretch and sharking on the sprocket teeth. Additionally, the deformed handlebar and bent brake pedal noted in 2025 suggest a previous impact or fall which should be visually inspected for further structural damage to the triple clamps or forks.
