2014 Triumph Trophy 1.2L Petrol · NG14 AEB

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, showing a clean MOT record following a minor electrical failure. The most recent test in April 2024 at 60,747 miles resulted in no defects, successfully resolving a failure just one month prior regarding a non-functional central rear lamp. This suggests the current owner is proactive in addressing immediate compliance issues, as the vehicle has passed several consecutive tests without any structural or mechanical advisories. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per annum. The data reveals a significant gap in usage between July 2018 and August 2019, where the vehicle covered only 8,035 miles in two years. Since then, the accumulation has remained consistent, with roughly 11,000 miles recorded over the last five years. While low mileage generally indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine, it increases the risk of component degradation due to age and long periods of sitting. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on rubber-based components and the braking system. The 2021 test flagged pitted and scored front brake discs while the 2017 advisory noted thin rear pads, indicating that while parts are replaced when necessary, they should be checked for surface corrosion or seizing resulting from infrequent use. Given the low mileage, inspect the fork seals for leaks, suspension bushes for cracking, and tyre sidewalls as these materials often perish through age rather than wear.
