Our Verdict
A strong option for buyers seeking a low
Focus your attention on the exhaust system; the 'Exhaust noisy' advisory has appeared in both 2024 and 2025, which may indicate an aftermarket system that could be subject to stricter scrutiny in future tests. Check the service history to confirm that maintenance intervals were followed despite the low annual mileage.
Verify the functionality of the shortened clutch and brake levers mentioned in the December 2025 MOT. As these are modifications, ensure they are comfortable for your hand size and that the brake can be applied with the same ease as a standard lever.
With a 998cc petrol engine, fuel consumption will be typical of a liter-class motorcycle, which is significantly higher than smaller displacement bikes. Insurance groups for the CB 1000 are generally high due to the engine's performance capabilities.
Maintenance costs for Honda are typically moderate, but you should budget for high-performance tyres and consumables which wear faster on high-torque machines. The Euro 4 status means it is compliant with most current UK regulations, though it lacks the efficiency of newer Euro 5 models.
Specifically inspect the exhaust system to determine if the noise flagged in the 2024 and 2025 MOTs is due to a modification or a leak. Examine the shortened brake and clutch levers mentioned in the December 2025 MOT to ensure they operate smoothly and without sticking.
Perform a general inspection for any wear consistent with 13,050 miles, paying close attention to the chain and sprockets. Ensure all electrical components are functioning correctly, as low-use vehicles can sometimes experience battery degradation.
This 2019 black Honda CB 1000 RA-K has covered 13,050 miles as of its most recent MOT in December 2025. The vehicle has passed all four recorded tests, although the two most recent entries highlight a persistent issue with exhaust noise. It also features modifications to the control levers noted in the latest inspection.
Aggregate data for the RA-K variant is unavailable, but the CB 1000 range is generally known for mechanical durability.
