1995 Honda NTV650 0.6L Petrol · M726 KTY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean recent history following a period of mechanical attention. The most recent test in April 2024 at 56,654 miles passed with no defects, indicating that previous mechanical issues have been addressed. Given that over two years have passed since this last inspection, the vehicle is currently overdue for an MOT, which necessitates an immediate assessment to confirm its current state of roadworthiness. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 31-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,800 miles per year. The data shows a significant period of inactivity between 2018 and 2021, where the vehicle covered only 26 miles over three years. Since 2021, usage has increased slightly, covering over 8,000 miles in three years. While the low total mileage generally suggests light use, the long intervals of standing recorded often increase the risk of rubber-based components degrading or seals seizing, despite the lack of high mechanical wear on the drivetrain. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension assembly, as the offside shock absorber showed a clear progression from light oil misting in 2018 to a serious leak that caused a failure in 2021. Although this was rectified, the seals should be visually checked for any new weeping or scoring on the fork legs. Additionally, the 2023 advisory regarding a front tyre worn to the legal limit suggests that despite the low mileage, the rubber may be reaching the end of its structural life, necessitating a check for cracking and tread depth across all tyres.
