The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on May 6 2026, at 1,543 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a recurring advisory issue regarding the exhaust system. While the tester flagged a noisy exhaust in both the March 2025 test and the May 2026 test, the condition has not yet escalated to a mechanical failure point, despite the persistent observation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 257 miles per year. The data shows very limited movement between tests, moving from 1,488 miles in March 2024 to 1,500 miles in March 2025, and finally to 1,543 miles last month. This suggests the vehicle sits stationary for long periods. While low mileage typically reduces wear on drivetrain components and brake pads, prolonged storage often introduces risks such as flat-spotting tyres, fuel degradation, and corrosion of exposed seals or linkages. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the exhaust system to determine if the noise stems from a loose baffle, a cracked manifold, or worn mounting bolts. Because this fault has persisted across two consecutive years without resolution, it warrants close attention to ensure structural failure is not imminent. Additionally, inspect the tyres for age-related perish cracking and the brake discs for pitting, as low-use cycles can lead to surface rust and rubber degradation that mileage figures alone would not reveal.
