2014 Honda CBR 1.0L Petrol · FT14 EWV

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 16 July 2025 at 8,495 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This unbroken streak of perfect records suggests the motorcycle has been well-maintained and has not suffered from the recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old machine, averaging approximately 700 miles per year. Between August 2021 and July 2025, the vehicle covered only 1,974 miles, indicating it is likely used for occasional seasonal purposes rather than daily commuting. While this low usage preserves the mechanical components like the drivetrain, tyres, and brakes, the long intervals between tests suggest the bike may have sat stationary for extended periods, which can lead to age-related degradation of rubber components. Given the lack of recorded mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on issues related to low-mileage storage rather than wear and tear. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking as the rubber may have perished over time despite having significant tread depth. The brake system should be checked for seized calipers or perished hydraulic lines caused by lack of use. Additionally, examine the fuel system and seals for any signs of drying or corrosion, as these components often fail on vehicles that remain stationary for long durations.
