2007 Honda CBR 125 RS-6 0.1L Petrol · CA07 AFZ

The Honda has passed its last three MOT tests without a single defect or advisory recorded, and the most recent test on 23 May 2025 at 12,846 miles confirms a clean and stable maintenance picture. There are no failures, no suspension or brake warnings, and no corrosion notices in the official history. That points to consistent mechanical upkeep rather than a machine that has been patched up just enough to scrape through an inspection. The recorded mileage is very low for a 2007 motorcycle, sitting at 12,846 miles after roughly 19 years. The gaps between tests reveal the real usage pattern: the bike covered only 377 miles between July 2022 and August 2023, then just 46 miles between August 2023 and May 2025, a period of roughly 21 months. That is a machine used for short seasonal runs or left standing for long stretches, not a daily commuter. The sparse mileage history is clean and consistent, but it does flag storage-related risks that a road test alone will not expose. With no advisories ever raised, there are no known structural problem areas in the MOT record to home in on. However, a motorcycle that stands for long periods demands a close physical check of items that the pass certificate does not guarantee as healthy. Look for perished or cracked rubber on the tyres, corrosion across the exhaust headers and brake disc faces, and any seizing in the rear brake caliper or its linkage. Also check the drive chain and sprockets for stiff links and surface rust, and inspect the fork seals for weeping. Old fuel left in the tank across several months of inactivity can corrode the internal surfaces, so examine the tank interior and fuel lines for varnish or contamination. The brake fluid and coolant are almost certainly overdue for a change regardless of the low mileage, purely on age. The MOT history itself is exemplary, but the 46-mile gap between the last two tests means this machine has mostly been stored since August 2023. A hands-on inspection, ideally with a cold engine start, is essential to confirm that standing time has not introduced hidden mechanical problems.
