Our Verdict

A strong candidate for buyers seeking a

When inspecting this specific black Honda, prioritize checking the tyre condition and chain tension, as bikes with low mileage can sometimes suffer from flat spots or corrosion if left stationary for long periods. Ensure the owner can provide documentation for any scheduled maintenance, as the MOT only confirms basic safety compliance and not mechanical service intervals.

Because this is a 649cc petrol model, verify that the fuel system has been maintained and that there are no signs of fluid leaks around the engine casing. Given the low mileage, check for any signs of age-related degradation on rubber components like hoses and seals which can occur even without high usage.

As a 649cc Euro 5 compliant motorcycle, running costs are generally predictable. Fuel economy will depend heavily on riding style, but the engine size suggests a balance between performance and efficiency.

Insurance groups for this capacity vary, so prospective buyers should obtain a quote based on their specific profile. Maintenance costs for a Honda typically involve standard consumables like oil, filters, and tyres, with an estimated annual running cost reflecting these requirements.

The most recent MOT from July 2024 recorded no defects, which is a positive indicator for the vehicle's immediate roadworthiness at that time. However, you should still inspect the braking system and lighting, as these are common areas for minor adjustments.

Pay close attention to the tyres; with only 4,877 miles on the clock, they may have plenty of tread but could be nearing the end of their functional life due to age. Additionally, check the drive chain for any signs of rust or lack of lubrication, which can happen on low-use motorcycles.

This 2021 Honda CB 650 RA-M is a relatively recent addition to the road, first registered in July 2021. With only 4,877 miles recorded at its July 2024 MOT, it has covered significantly less distance than typical for a five-year-old vehicle. The MOT history shows a clean pass in 2024 with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle met all regulatory standards at that time.

There is currently no aggregate MOT data available to establish a long-term reliability pattern for the Honda CB 650 RA-M.
