2004 Honda CBR 1100 X-4 1.1L Petrol · KC04 FHR

The vehicle presents a stable and roadworthy profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on October 2, 2025 at 44,941 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates that the motorcycle currently meets the minimum standards for safety and environmental emissions with no immediate mechanical or structural failures identified by the DVSA testing equipment. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old machine, averaging approximately 2,043 miles per year. There is a three-year gap between the July 2022 test at 40,550 miles and the October 2025 test, during which the bike covered only 4,391 miles. This suggests the motorcycle is used sparingly or remains stationary for extended periods. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often invites age-related degradation of rubber components rather than mechanical fatigue. Despite the clean MOT records, a buyer must physically inspect for effects of low-mileage storage. Particular attention should be paid to the cracking of fuel lines, brake hoses, and fork seals, which perish over time regardless of distance traveled. The brakes should be checked for seized calipers and pitted discs, as infrequent use often leads to surface corrosion buildup. Additionally, the frame should be inspected for deep rust in hidden areas, as the MOT test only identifies structural corrosion once it has reached a point of failure.
