1991 Honda CBR 600 0.6L Petrol · E987 YUX

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status based on the two available MOT records. The most recent test conducted on 23 May 2023 at 26,878 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates that at the time of the last inspection, all mechanical and structural components met the minimum DVSA safety standards without any immediate areas requiring attention. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 35-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 768 miles per year. Between the November 2021 test at 25,452 miles and the May 2023 test, the vehicle covered only 1,426 miles. This low usage suggests either infrequent riding or long periods of storage. While this reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine, such long-standing periods often lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid chemistry rather than mechanical wear and tear. A buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection focusing on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage. Check for perished or dry cracking in the fuel hoses, brake lines, and fork seals, which often fail regardless of low mileage. The braking system should be inspected for seized calipers or perished master cylinders due to lack of regular use. Additionally, examine the frame for hidden corrosion and the swingarm pivot bushings, as the MOT only flags structural integrity issues that are visible during the test.
