2019 Lexmoto Diablo 0.1L Petrol · HT19 XYX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recurring issue with the front suspension. In the most recent test in May 2025 at 7,232 miles, the motorcycle passed after an initial failure for a leaking offside shock absorber and incorrect headlamp aim. This represents an improvement from the March 2023 failure where the same shock absorber was flagged with a serious fluid leak, suggesting the component was eventually replaced or repaired to meet the required standard. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,033 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the April 2024 test at 6,095 miles and the May 2025 test at 7,232 miles, covering only 1,137 miles over thirteen months. This pattern indicates the vehicle has likely sat for long periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, seized brake calipers, and corrosion of exposed surfaces despite the low odometer reading. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the offside front shock absorber to ensure the light misting noted in 2025 has not worsened back into a functional leak. The engine mounting, which was flagged in 2023, should also be checked for signs of excessive wear or rubber cracking due to age. Given the low usage, the brake system and tyres should be scrutinised for flat spotting or perish rot, as these are common failure points for low-mileage vehicles that remain stationary for extended periods.
