2017 Keeway TX 0.1L Petrol · PF17 PKZ

The vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthiness status following a pass on 12 April 2025 at 28,017 miles. While the most recent test indicates no defects, the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The historical sequence of two failures in April 2025, following a failure in August 2022, suggests that the previous owner only addressed issues when compelled by an MOT test failure rather than following a consistent service schedule. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 3,113 miles per year. There is a significant three-year gap between the September 2022 test at 26,517 miles and the April 2025 tests, during which only 1,500 miles were recorded. This pattern indicates the vehicle likely sat stationary for long periods or was used infrequently. Long-term standing often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components, perished seals, and corrosion on exposed metal surfaces, despite the low mileage on the odometer. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on components that suffer from low usage and long periods of inactivity. Although the provided record does not list specific mechanical reasons for the past failures, recurring failures necessitate a check for seized brake calipers, perished fork seals, and degraded tyres. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking and check the chain for excessive rust or stretching from lack of lubrication. Given the age of the vehicle, verifying the structural integrity of the frame and the condition of the fuel system is critical to ensure the low mileage has not masked internal degradation.
