2014 Honda CBF 0.1L Petrol · LD64 XOL

The vehicle is currently in an unroadworthy state following a failure in its most recent test in December 2025. While the bike maintained a clean record for several years, the maintenance trend is now worsening. The transition from a pass in 2024 to a multi-point failure in 2025 indicates a significant lapse in mechanical oversight. Specifically, the steering headbearing has progressed from slight free play to excessive wear within a twelve-month period, suggesting that a known issue was ignored. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 2014 model, averaging approximately 3,000 miles per year with a total of 35,534 miles. This low usage suggests less mechanical strain on the engine and gearbox, but it often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid stagnation. The gap between the December 2024 and December 2025 tests shows only 3,030 miles travelled, which is consistent with the long-term average but highlights why the front tyre reached the legal limit of 1.0mm tread depth by the latest inspection. A buyer must prioritize the inspection of the steering assembly to ensure the wear in the headbearing has been properly rectified with new bearings rather than just adjustment. The reported wheel misalignment and insecure headlamp also require a physical check of the fork bolts and mounting brackets integrity. Furthermore, given the 2021 report of pitted brake discs and thin pads, the entire braking system should be evaluated for corrosion or uneven thinning, which is common on low-mileage vehicles that sit idle for long periods.
