The vehicle remains technically roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a developing mechanical issue regarding the steering assembly. While the most recent test on 29 May 2025 at 10,796 miles identified a stiff or notchy steering headbearing and a deteriorated rear registration plate, this is a recurring fault. The 5 June 2024 test at 9,355 miles noted a slight notch in the same steering component, indicating that the wear is progressing rather than resolving. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,542 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between 2022 and 2025, where the vehicle covered roughly 900 to 1,200 miles per annual interval. Low mileage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and braking system, though long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components and oxidation of metal surfaces, which may align with the steering issues noted in the more recent tests. A buyer must inspect the steering geometry in person to check for excessive resistance or play in the handlebars during a test. The recurring flags for a stiff headbearing suggest the bearings may require replacement or professional lubrication to prevent total component failure. Additionally, the deteriorated rear plate needs replacing to ensure legal compliance with visibility standards. Given the low mileage, the inspection should also check for flat spots on tyres and corrosion on the brake discs, which are common in vehicles that are used infrequently.
