2008 Honda NT 700 V-8 0.7L Petrol · FP58 AXS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend regarding brake system neglect. While it passed the most recent test in March 2026 at 41,802 miles, the record shows a persistent failure to address underlying mechanical issues. The recurring reports of front brake binding across 2024, 2025, and 2026 suggest the owner is only performing minimum repairs required to pass testing rather than preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between March 2023 and March 2024, where the vehicle covered only 5,543 miles in twelve months. This low annual mileage often leads to surface corrosion on stationary components, which aligns with the pitted and scored rear brake discs noted in 2023 and 2025. The data suggests the bike spends time sitting for long periods rather than undergoing high-intensity use. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front brake assembly and caliper sliders. The 2024 failure due to excessive front wheel bearing play is a serious mechanical flag that indicates internal components were allowed to deteriorate to the point of imminent failure. Furthermore, because the front brake linings were flagged as near the minimum limit in March 2026, the entire system is likely nearing the end of its life. Inspect for perished rubber seals and seized caliper pistons, as the low-mileage history often masks age-related degradation that mileage alone does not reveal.
