Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for a low-mileag
When inspecting this specific 2015 CBR, prioritize checking the condition of the drive chain and sprockets. While the 2024 MOT noted the chain was worn but not excessive, you should verify if it has since been replaced or if it shows signs of further degradation given the low mileage usage.
Because the bike has been ridden so infrequently, check for signs of age-related deterioration that aren't captured by an MOT, such as perished rubber hoses, aging tyres with flat spots, or battery health. Ensure that the silver paintwork and components haven't suffered from long periods of storage without use.
As a 471cc petrol motorcycle, running costs are generally manageable. Fuel economy should be efficient given the engine size and low mileage, though actual costs will depend on riding style.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically moderate, but you should budget for items like tyres and brake pads which can age even if not heavily worn by mileage. Insurance groups for this engine capacity are usually mid-range, making it a practical choice for many riders. Estimated annual running costs are relatively low due to the minimal annual mileage recorded.
Focus your inspection on the drive chain, as this was the only specific issue flagged in the MOT history (recorded in May 2024). Check for any signs of rust or stiff links.
Additionally, keep an eye on the headlamp and tyres during your inspection. While this specific vehicle has not failed on these items, they are listed as the top failure reasons for this model across the wider dataset of 11,492 vehicles. Ensure the lighting is clear and the tyres have adequate tread and no sidewall cracking.
This 2015 silver Honda CBR has covered just 7,128 miles in approximately eleven years, which is significantly lower than the model average of 2,031 miles per year. The MOT history is notably clean, with only one recorded advisory regarding a drive chain in 2024. Given the low mileage and the lack of recent defects, this appears to be a well-preserved example of the model.
The Honda CBR shows a high average MOT pass rate of 88.0% across the dataset, suggesting a generally reliable platform.
