2021 Honda CB 650 RA-M 0.6L Petrol · KT21 XLD

The 2021 Honda CB 650 RA-M shows a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 1 March 2025 at 5,859 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the prior clean result from 22 February 2024 at 3,016 miles. Two consecutive MOT passes without advisories indicate the machine has presented no mechanical or structural concerns across the recorded inspection window. The mileage pattern reflects very light use for a five-year-old vehicle. The record moves from 3,016 miles in February 2024 to 5,859 miles by March 2025, an annual gain of roughly 2,843 miles, below the 1,172-mile yearly average implied by the odometer against age. Such low accumulation points to short local running or extended standing periods, with no rapid wear phase or missing-year gap in the supplied tests. A buyer should still inspect the bike in person for issues that MOT testing of a motorcycle may not expose in depth. Long idle spells risk degraded fork seals, flat-spotted tyres, and corroded brake discs or caliper pistons despite the clean advisories. The sparse history gives no flagged recurrence of suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or structural rust, yet standing storage can hide weeping seals and hardened control cables. Given the absent defect record, the core risk lies in consumable condition from disuse rather than mechanical failure. Verify tyre sidewall dates, brake fluid clarity, and chain tension before purchase. The DVSA data alone supports a sound roadworthiness verdict with no worsening trend detected.
