2010 Honda ST 1300 A-9 1.3L Petrol · LC10 LWS

This 2010 Honda ST 1300 A-9 presents a generally stable maintenance history, with a very low average annual mileage of approximately 2,688 miles. While this suggests the bike has seen light use, the primary risk with such low mileage is the potential for long periods of inactivity, which can lead to seized components and perished rubber seals. The MOT record shows a clean pass in December 2025 with no recorded defects, indicating the bike is currently in good roadworthy condition. The historical data shows only minor issues, specifically a failed MOT in 2021 due to thin brake pads and a minor advisory for a binding rear brake in 2024. These are typical wear-and-tear items for a motorcycle of this age and do not suggest a pattern of systemic neglect or worsening mechanical failure. The trend appears stable, as the bike has returned to clean passes following the 2021 and 2024 interventions. However, because the mileage is low, you must be wary of components that degrade with age rather than use, such as brake fluid, coolant, and rubber hoses, which may not have been replaced as frequently as they would be on a higher-mileage machine. When inspecting the bike in person, your first priority should be the braking system. Given the history of binding and pad wear, check that the discs are not scored and that the calipers move freely without dragging. Next, examine the condition of the tyres and any visible rubber hoses for signs of cracking or dry rot, as these are common issues in bikes that have spent significant time standing idle.
