MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 1990 Honda Vfr400 (H293 CMW) between March 2006 and August 2021.

The record contains 11 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 18 August 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 26 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Headlamp aim too low (1.6)”; “Locking devices not correctly fitted which may make the motor bicycle dangerous to ride Clutch lever pivot lock nut (6.2”; “Rear Tyre valve stem damaged which could cause sudden tyre deflation (4.1.2c)”.
