2018 Triumph Bonneville 1.2L Petrol · FH18 KBZ

The vehicle maintains an excellent roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 30 December 2025 at 9,776 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This clean streak suggests that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters without any recurring faults or degradation over the last several years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,222 miles per year. There is a significant gap between December 2021 and February 2023, where the vehicle covered only 677 miles over 14 months. However, usage has increased more recently, with 3,245 miles recorded between January and January 2024 and another 522 miles between February and December 2025. This pattern suggests the bike likely sat stationary for long periods, which can lead to specific types of wear not captured by mileage-related metrics. While the MOT record shows no mechanical failures, a buyer must inspect for issues associated with low-mileage storage. You should check for flat spots on the tyres, surface corrosion on the brake discs, and potential degradation of rubber components or fuel lines that age regardless of use. Inspect the chain for excessive rust or seized links, as MOT testers do not assess the condition of the drive system. Given the low usage, ensure that fluids have been changed regularly and that the fork seals have not perished from lack of movement.
