AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most critical concern is that this vehicle has no recorded MOT activity since November 2021. Given today's date in June 2026, the bike has been off the road or untested for nearly five years, meaning its current roadworthiness is entirely unknown. The MOT history reveals a pattern of significant neglect, particularly around 2020. The vehicle suffered a series of failures involving multiple safety-critical systems, including serious fluid leaks from both front shock absorbers, contaminated front brake pads, and a rear brake with excessive fluctuation. There were also issues with steering fouling on the bodywork and incorrect wheel alignment affecting the steering. The mileage is very low for a 36-year-old machine. Notably, the odometer remained frozen at 35,326 miles across every entry from March 2020 to November 2021. This suggests the bike spent long periods standing still, which often leads to the perishing of rubber components, seized calipers, and degraded fluids. While the bike eventually passed in late 2021, the earlier volume of defects—ranging from missing footrests and a missing chain guard to ineffective fuel caps—indicates a history of poor maintenance. The trend shifted from a high number of failures to a pass, but the subsequent five-year gap in testing suggests the vehicle may have returned to a state of dormancy.
