2006 MV Agusta F4 1.0L Petrol · MV06 ART

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on April 2, 2026, at 15,326 miles with no recorded defects. This follows a period of clean passes over the last three years, indicating that mechanical and structural components currently meet minimum standards. While the history shows minor minor failures in the past, these were related to external hardware and resolved during retests, suggesting a consistent approach to maintaining road-legal equipment. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 766 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between 2020 and 2021, where the vehicle covered only 100 miles in a year. Since 2023, usage has remained minimal, with just 1,306 miles covered over three years. This low-frequency operation suggests the bike has spent long periods stationary, which reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain but often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid chemistry that is not captured by the MOT test alone. A buyer must prioritize an inspection of components affected by long-term storage rather than high-mileage wear. The record shows previous failures for missing rear footrests and reflectors, which are cosmetic and wear-and-tear items, but they highlight a history of oversight regarding minor hardware. Given the low mileage, the inspector should specifically check for perished brake lines, seized caliper pistons, and degraded fork seals that may leak from lack of use. The structural integrity of the frame should be scrutinized for corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from surface rust if stored in damp environments without regular airflow.
