MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Honda Fireblade (R283 FGC) between March 2006 and August 2025.

The record contains 19 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 20 August 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (13 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 31 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Rear Tyre has ply or cord exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Upper Handlebar grip insecure to handlebar (2.2.1 (d) (ii))”; “Offside Front Stop lamp remains on when the brakes are released Front brake lamp switch not operating correctly (4.3.2 (”.
