2012 MV Agusta Brutale 1.1L Petrol · KX62 EYY

This motorcycle has maintained a consistent roadworthy status across all four MOT tests, with the most recent inspection on 10 April 2025 confirming no defects at 8,509 miles. The absence of advisories or failings in any of the four annual tests suggests the vehicle has been kept in a stable condition, though the lack of recorded faults does not preclude hidden mechanical issues. The most recent test was conducted just under three and a half months ago, which is within the acceptable window for a motorcycle’s MOT validity. However, the record’s silence on servicing or maintenance beyond MOT compliance means critical components like chain tension, throttle response, and suspension alignment remain unverified. The recorded mileage of 8,509 miles over nearly 14 years—roughly 608 miles annually—indicates extremely light usage, which could imply prolonged storage or minimal riding. There are no gaps in MOT testing, but the consistency of mileage suggests the motorcycle has not been subjected to typical wear patterns. The identical mileage reading between the 2022 and 2023 tests (8,447 miles) may indicate either an error in recording or a period of inactivity. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical stress, it also raises concerns about fluid degradation, rubber seals, and potential corrosion from prolonged immobility. Given the lack of MOT-reported faults, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the chain and sprocket for wear or stretch, as these are not routinely checked in MOT tests. The suspension components—particularly the rear shock absorber and front forks—should be examined for oil leaks, binding, or excessive play, as these are common failure points in lightly ridden motorcycles. Tyre condition, despite not failing MOTs, warrants scrutiny, as the absence of tread depth advisories could mask uneven wear or internal damage from storage. Finally, check for corrosion on the frame, especially around the fuel tank and exhaust mounts, as prolonged inactivity increases rust risk in high-stress areas.
