2006 Honda CBF 1.0L Petrol · ML06 RFZ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on April 5, 2025 at 19,330 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a clean record across the last five recorded inspections. This consistency suggests the mechanical and structural components have remained in good condition without the recurring degradation issues typically seen in older machinery. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 966 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the August 2018 test and the January 2023 test, during which the vehicle covered only 111 miles over four years. Since early 2023, usage has increased slightly, with 4,041 miles recorded in the two-year period between January 2023 and 2025. This profile indicates the bike has likely been stored for long periods, which presents specific mechanical concerns unrelated to mileage-related wear. While the MOT record is clean, the low mileage necessitates an inspection of items associated with long-term storage rather than mechanical fatigue. A buyer should specifically check for perished rubber seals, degraded brake lines, and tyre sidewalls that may show cracking despite deep tread depth. The fuel system should be examined for varnish or contamination, and the suspension fork seals should be checked for leaks caused by drying. Given the age, checking for minor surface corrosion on the frame and swingarm is also essential to ensure environmental exposure has not compromised the structural integrity of the vehicle.
