2016 Triumph Bonneville 0.9L Petrol · OV16 VFF

The vehicle maintains a clean roadworthiness status with a perfectly stable maintenance trend across its recorded history. The most recent MOT test conducted in May 2024 at 439 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This consistency dates back to the 2019 inspection, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have not suffered from significant degradation or recurring failures during the periods of recorded operation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 44 miles per year. There is a notable three-year gap between the 2019 and April 2022 tests, during which the bike covered only 58 miles. Since 2022, the usage has remained minimal, with only 69 miles recorded over the final two years leading up to the most recent test. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between use imply the vehicle has spent vast majority of its life stationary. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on risks associated with long-term storage rather than mechanical wear. The tyres should be closely scrutinised for age-related cracking and sidewall rot, as rubber degrades regardless of tread depth. Fluid levels and quality, particularly brake fluid and engine oil, require checking for moisture contamination or oxidation from periods of inactivity. Additionally, the brake discs and calipers should be inspected for pitting or seized pistons, which are common on low-mileage vehicles that are not regularly ridden to clear away corrosion.
