2016 BMW R 1200 1.2L Petrol · LL16 EUV

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by consistent pass results. The most recent inspection on 18 June 2025 at 40,741 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite a failure on the same day at the same mileage. This anomaly likely represents an administrative error or a minor item that was rectified immediately before the retest, as no specific mechanical failures were documented in the record. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for a decade-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. A significant data gap exists between the November 2021 test at 12,968 miles and the May 2023 test at 37,610 miles, during which the vehicle covered over 24,000 miles in 18 months. While the low annual mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and brake components, the periods of potential inactivity can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts, fluid acidity, and flat-spotting tyres. Since the MOT history shows no recurring advisories or faults, a physical inspection should focus on components sensitive to low-mileage storage. A buyer must check the fork oil seals for weeping and inspect the brake lines for cracking or perished rubber. Given the age of the machine, verify the condition of the tyres bushes and ensure the brake discs have not developed surface corrosion from long periods without use, despite the low recorded mileage.
