2003 Honda ST1300 A 1.3L Petrol · FE53 PXO

The vehicle demonstrates a highly consistent and stable roadworthiness trend, having secured five consecutive clean passes without a single recorded advisory or failure. The most recent test on 23 June 2025 at 64,239 miles confirms that the motorcycle remains in excellent mechanical condition, with no defects noted by the examiner. This uninterrupted history of clean passes suggests a diligent approach to preventative maintenance and suggests the machine has been kept in a road-ready state throughout the last five years. The total recorded mileage of 64,239 over a 23-year lifespan averages to approximately 2,793 miles per annum, which is exceptionally low for this model. The data shows a period of limited use between the February 2021 test at 58,954 miles and the May 2022 test at 59,202 miles, indicating the motorcycle may have spent significant time in storage. Since 2022, the mileage accumulation has remained steady, with the owner covering roughly 5,000 miles over the last four years. This usage pattern is typical for a weekend or touring machine and avoids the heavy wear associated with high-frequency urban commuting. Because the MOT record is entirely free of advisories, you must conduct a thorough physical inspection to identify components that the test does not cover. Focus your attention on the condition of the rubber components, such as coolant hoses, fuel lines, and suspension seals, which can degrade due to age rather than mileage. Check the brake fluid for signs of moisture absorption and inspect the swingarm and frame for hidden corrosion, as long periods of inactivity can often mask these issues. While the MOT history is exemplary, ensure the engine oil and final drive fluid have been changed recently to account for the low annual usage.
