2016 Honda CB 0.5L Petrol · DX16 AXO

The 2016 Honda CB presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 11 July 2025 at 2,982 miles which recorded no defects. Every annual examination from 2021 through 2025 returned a pass with no advisories, indicating the machine has been consistently presented in a condition acceptable to testers and showing no worsening or recurring fault pattern. The mileage record reveals extremely light use for a ten-year-old vehicle. The odometer read 1,581 miles at the 30 March 2021 test, rose only to 1,640 miles by 15 April 2022, then climbed to 1,834 miles in April 2023, 2,535 miles in July 2024, and 2,982 miles in July 2025. That averages roughly 298 miles per year. The sparse, clean history shows no rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps, though the low figure implies long standing periods between rides. A buyer should still inspect in person for issues that MOT tests on a machine of this type may not capture in depth. Prolonged storage at low mileage commonly allows brake calipers to seize, tyre sidewalls to crack, and suspension linkage bushes to harden despite no advisories being raised. Check the chain and sprockets for corrosion or tight spots, and verify the exhaust emissions remain clean given the minimal running. Given the absent defect history, no structural rust, binding brakes, or worn coil springs have been flagged by testers. The previous keeper clearly kept basic upkeep current. Confirm the documented mileages match the physical wear on controls and drivetrain before purchase.
