2004 Honda CBR600RR 0.6L Petrol · R9 BUX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a concerning trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 22,105 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure for an illegal front tyre and an insecure nearside footrest. The recurring nature of brake-related faults across the last three years—ranging from fluctuating effort to excessively binding calipers—suggests that the hydraulic system or mechanical components are suffering from degradation or corrosion that has not been fully addressed by previous owners. At 22 years old, the recorded mileage of 22,105 miles is exceptionally low, averaging just 1,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent but minimal usage, with roughly 900 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 270 miles leading up to the 2025 inspection. This low mileage often masks issues related to stationary periods, such as perished rubber components, seized seals, and internal corrosion, which are supported by the deteriorating registration plate and melting exhaust noted in 2023. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, as the tester flagged fluctuating effort and binding calipers in three consecutive years. The distorted bead rim on the front wheel identified in November 2025 requires a close look for structural deformation that could lead to pressure loss. Additionally, the drive chain should be inspected for tension issues and rust given the previous report of slackness, and the condition of all rubber hoses must be checked for cracking due to the vehicle's significant age and low-use profile.
