Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle shows a consistent history of passing tests despite a significant mechanical failure in early 2024. In the most recent test on May 2026 at 25,678 miles, the motorcycle passed without advisories, indicating that the previous issues have been addressed. However, the record from March 2024 at 25,408 miles reveals a failure due to an excessively binding front brake and tyre tread depth below the legal limit. This suggests that the braking system required immediate intervention to rectify caliper issues, though the subsequent pass in 2025 confirms the repair was carried out. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 25,678 miles is exceptionally low, averaging under 2,000 miles per year. This usage pattern often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it increases the risk of degradation in rubber components and seized seals from sitting stationary. The gap between the 2022 test at 25,246 miles and the 2024 test at 25,408 miles shows only 162 miles driven over two years, which explains the appearance of flat-spotted tyres and potential brake stiction noted in later records. The buyer should focus on the front brake assembly to ensure the binding issue does not return due to neglected piston movement. While the 2026 result is clean, the low mileage justifies a physical inspection of age-related items such as perished tyres, degraded fluid, and leaking fork seals. The lack of structural advisories in the record suggests the frame remains sound, but the intermittent nature of the use implies the vehicle may have been maintained only upon failure rather than proactively.
