2009 Honda CB1000 1.0L Petrol · LG09 EFL

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 19 March 2026 at 31,496 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend of perfect results across the last five tests indicates a vehicle that has been well-maintained and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or significant structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seventeen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,853 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between July 2021 and December 2022, where the vehicle covered only 357 miles in seventeen months. However, the usage increased significantly between the December 2022 and 2023 tests, with 8,212 miles recorded in that single year. This pattern of low total mileage suggests the bike may have sat for long periods, which often leads to different types of wear compared to high-mile high-mile examples. While the clean MOT record suggests no immediate faults, a buyer must inspect for issues common to low-mileage storage. Particular attention should turn to dry-rotting on tyres, perished rubber hoses, and potential seizing of brake calipers due to lack of use. Because the MOT does not assess fluid levels or internal seals, a physical inspection should check for fork seal leaks and the condition of the chain and sprockets. The lack of recorded advisories for corrosion suggests the frame and components remain structurally sound, but the age of the components remains the primary factor regardless of the low mileage.
