2017 Triumph Bonneville 1.2L Petrol · PF17 TXB

The vehicle presents an excellent roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on May 6, 2026 at 7,590 miles returned no defects or advisories whatsoever. This reflects a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last five years, suggesting the motorcycle has been kept in a high state of repair without recurring mechanical or structural failures flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old machine, averaging approximately 843 miles per year. There is a notable gap between the 2021 test at 4,237 miles and the 2023 test at 4,333 miles, during which the bike covered only 100 miles in over two years. Since 2023, usage has increased slightly but remains modest, covering roughly 3,200 miles in three years. This low mileage indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and braking system compared to typical high-mileage examples. While the MOT record shows no mechanical faults, a buyer must focus on components affected by long periods of standing. Physical inspection should check for flat spots on the tyres, perished rubber components, such as fork seals or brake hoses, and potential degradation of brake fluid due to moisture absorption. Because the bike has been used infrequently, the brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion and the chain for signs of rust or seizing, despite the low recorded mileage.
