2016 KSR Moto TW 0.1L Petrol · CV66 GUG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass on 27 March 2025 at 6,181 miles. While the MOT history shows a failure just seven days prior on 20 March 2025 at 6,163 miles, the lack of recorded defects on either certificate suggests an administrative error or a minor non-mechanical issue that was immediately rectified. Since this anomaly, the maintenance trend remains consistent, with no recurring mechanical or structural failures across the last five tests. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 618 miles per year. There are significant gaps in usage, such as the 26-month interval between the January 2020 and May 2022 tests, and the sudden increase of 5,409 miles between March 2024 and March 2025. This low-frequency use indicates the bike has likely sat stationary for long periods, which often shifts the mechanical risk toward the degradation of rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear on the drivetrain or engine. A buyer must focus the physical inspection on components affected by long-term storage rather than mileage. The tester should check for flat-spotting on tyres, perished brake lines, and seized brake calipers due to lack of use. Given the age, inspect the frame and exhaust system for surface corrosion or pitting that develops when a vehicle remains immobile. Despite the low mileage, the chain and sprockets should be examined for dry rust or oxidation, as these are common issues on vehicles that are infrequently ridden over extended periods.
