2012 Honda CBF 1000 FA-B 1.0L Petrol · D13 PAN

The 2012 Honda CBF 1000 FA-B presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 March 2026 at 29,041 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. Mileage sits low for a fourteen-year-old machine. The record shows 22,411 miles in March 2022, rising to 22,420 by February 2023, then 24,908 in March 2024, 26,810 in March 2025, and 29,041 in March 2026. Annual accumulation stays under 3,000 miles throughout, averaging roughly 2,074 miles per year. No gaps or sudden jumps appear; the sparse five-entry history shows only steady, light use with no failures or advisories logged. A clean MOT sheet means the tester raised no concerns on brake discs, suspension bushes, steering, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion at each visit. That gives the buyer no recorded faults to chase. Low mileage and likely periods of standing still still warrant a physical check of tyre sidewall cracking, brake caliper seizure, and fork seal weeping before purchase. Given the absent advisories, focus the viewing on consumable age rather than mechanical defect. Inspect the date stamps on tyres and brake fluid, confirm the chain and sprockets are not corroded from inactivity, and verify the battery holds charge after storage. The record implies a carefully used bike, but paper cleanliness does not replace hands-on inspection of rubber and fluids.
