1991 Honda MTX125 0.1L Petrol · J226 ORW

The 1991 Honda MTX125 presents a stable roadworthiness status with no recorded defects across its two most recent MOT tests. The latest examination on 5 October 2024 at 7,000 miles returned a pass with no advisories, matching the clean result from 13 June 2022 at 6,963 miles. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration and no outstanding mechanical concerns in the official record. Recorded mileage sits at roughly 200 miles per year against 35 years of age, with only 37 miles added between the 2022 and 2024 tests. Such low accumulation points to minimal road use, likely extended periods of storage. The two-year gap between tests is wider than the standard annual cycle, though both entries are recent enough to reflect current condition relative to today's date in July 2026. The sparse history shows no failures, no advisories, and no consumable wear flags. A buyer should still verify in person what static storage may have concealed. Long idle periods on a machine of this age commonly degrade suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake calipers through hardening and seizure rather than wear. The tester noted no corrosion or structural issues, but a 1991 frame demands a close check for rust at weld points and around the steering head. Given the clean MOT trail, previous keepers appear to have preserved the vehicle rather than neglected it, yet low mileage offers no guarantee of component elasticity. Inspect tyre sidewalls for cracking, confirm brake discs are free of pitting, and test the clutch and gearbox for stiffness before purchase.
