2004 Aprilia 1.0L Petrol · KX04 AXR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean passes in recent years. The most recent test conducted in April 2022 at 34,103 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the motorcycle was in a good mechanical state at that time. However, the vehicle has not been tested for over four years, meaning the current roadworthiness is unverified and the data is now outdated. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twenty-two year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,550 miles per annum. There is a significant five-year gap between the July 2017 and April 2022 tests, during which the vehicle covered only 3,163 miles. This sporadic usage suggests the bike has likely been stored or stationary for long periods between use. While low mileage reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it increases the risk of degradation in rubber components, fluid breakdown, and internal corrosion due to inactivity. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system and fluid lines due to the long intervals. The failure in July 2016 at 28,823 miles regarding inadequate rear brake pedal travel indicates a previous issue with hydraulic pressure or master cylinder seals. Given the age and low usage, check for perished rubber brake hoses, seized caliper pistons, and degraded brake fluid. Additionally, inspect the suspension seals and tyres for deep cracking or dry rot, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from age-related material failure rather than tread wear.
