1990 Honda XR600 0.6L Petrol · G135 ATL

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of MOT passes. The most recent test on February 27, 2024, returned no recorded defects, indicating that the motorcycle met all minimum safety and emissions standards at that time. The lack of failures across the last seven years suggests a proactive approach to maintenance where the owner likely addressed issues before they resulted in a test failure. Mileage data is extremely sparse, making it impossible to determine the actual rate of wear on mechanical components. The entry on July 30, 2020, recorded zero miles, which typically indicates a clerical error by the tester or that the vehicle was moved only negligible distances. Significant gaps exist between tests, such as the two-year interval between 2022 and 2024, coinciding with the daytime use designations. This low usage profile increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in fluids and rubber components rather than mechanical wear from mileage. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the structural integrity of the frame and swingarm, as long-term storage can lead to hidden corrosion that MOT tests may not fully detect. Given the daytime use nature, check for dry rot or degradation in the fuel hoses, seals, and fork seals which perish over time regardless of distance. Additionally, inspect the brake calipers for binding or perished pistons, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from internal corrosion due to lack of regular use.
