2010 Honda CB 600 F-9 0.6L Petrol · MD02 DLD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by consecutive MOT passes over the last five years. The most recent test in August 2025 at 21,967 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and electrical systems currently meet minimum legal standards. This follows a period of clean results since 2022, suggesting that the motorcycle has been maintained without significant mechanical failures or recurring structural issues. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,373 miles per year. Between July 2021 and August 2025, the bike covered only 1,454 miles, suggesting it is used sparingly or stored for long periods. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber parts and fluids. The July 2023 test at 21,070 miles noted a front tyre worn close to the legal limit, which is a common symptom of low-mileage vehicles where tyres age before the tread wears. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from time rather than just distance. Check for perished rubber hoses, cracked fork seals, and degraded brake lines which can occur during long periods of inactivity. Given the record shows no structural corrosion or brake issues, the frame and swingarm should be inspected for deep-seated rust. Ensure the tyres have sufficient tread depth and have not been replaced recently, as the age of the rubber often outweighs the low mileage on such-use motorcycles.
