2008 Honda CBR 1000 RR-6 1.0L Petrol · DU58 XNW

The 2008 Honda CBR 1000 RR-6 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 March 2026 at 33,107 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. The recorded mileage confirms exceptionally light use for an eighteen-year-old machine. The bike covered just 623 miles between the 2022 test at 32,484 miles and the 2026 test at 33,107 miles, averaging under 160 miles per year across that span. The DVSA history shows no gaps and no advisories on any test from 24 March 2022 through 7 March 2026, which indicates the previous keeper stored the machine for long periods rather than riding it regularly. A buyer should still inspect the machine in person for issues that an MOT pass does not capture. Standing vehicles commonly develop perished rubber components, seized calipers, and hardened suspension bushes that escape detection on a short test centre ride. The clean record gives no warning of corrosion on the frame or swinging arm, yet eighteen years of age and intermittent use make a close visual check of structural welds and exhaust condition prudent before purchase. Low annual mileage and five consecutive defect-free tests suggest the former owner maintained basic statutory compliance, though the sparse riding pattern means consumable age rather than wear is the chief concern. Verify tyre manufacture dates, brake fluid condition, and coolant integrity on viewing, as these degrade with time regardless of the odometer.
