2020 Lexmoto LXR 125 SY 125-10 0.1L Petrol · LF70 XZL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on April 3, 2024, but the maintenance trend shows a reactive approach rather than preventative care. The bike failed just one month prior at the same mileage mark due to a serious fluid leak in the nearside front shock absorber. While this specific fault was rectified, the subsequent pass still noted a slight fluctuation in brake effort on the front assembly, suggesting that the hydraulic system or disc surfaces may be beginning to require closer attention. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 466 miles per year. The recorded 2,793 miles as of the April 2024 test indicates the vehicle has spent long periods stationary or seen minimal use. While low mileage reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often increases risks associated with rubber degradation, seal drying out, and internal corrosion. The failure of the shock absorber is a common symptom of internal seals failing over time despite the low distance travelled. A buyer must physically inspect the front suspension to ensure the replacement absorber was fitted correctly and that no other leaks are present. The noted fluctuation in brake effort warrants a thorough check of the front brake discs for pitting or thinning and an inspection of the brake lines for perish cracking. Given the low usage and high age, it is also vital to examine the tyres for flat spotting and the fuel system for degradation, as these components age by time regardless of the mileage recorded.
