2008 Honda PES 125-7 0.1L Petrol · LL08 VCC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the record indicates a period of inconsistent mileage reporting. The most recent test conducted in September 2022 at 17,264 miles resulted in a pass, following an immediate failure on the same day due to a rear tyre tread depth of only 1.0mm. This suggests that while the owner addressed immediate consumable requirements to achieve compliance, the overall mechanical condition remained free of defects during that inspection. The mileage data is highly irregular, suggesting the bike spent long periods stationary in storage. Between May 2018 and October 2020, the vehicle covered 1,150 miles, yet the 2022 record shows 17,264 miles, which is significantly lower than the previous 36,899 reading. This discrepancy indicates a potential odometer error or cluster replacement. The average usage of under 1,000 miles per is exceptionally low, which increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber components, perished seals, and fuel system corrosion rather than mechanical wear from use. A buyer should focus physical inspections on the steering and braking systems based on historical flags. The 2017 test identified slight free play in the steering headbearing, and the 2018 test noted worn front brake discs. Given the low mileage and likely storage periods, check for scoring or pitting on the brake rotors and ensure the steering headset has not seized or developed. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots, as the 2022 failure proves the tyres were reaching the end of their life despite the low travel distance.
