2020 Honda CBR 650 RA-K 0.6L Petrol · RX20 WKB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in the January 2026 test, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent inspection at 3,647 miles initially resulted in a failure due to a bald rear tyre and a misaligned nearside front headlamp. While these issues were rectified to secure a pass, the presence of these faults suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical defects when they prevent a legal test pass. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 608 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the March 2024 test at 855 miles and the January 2026 test, where the bike covered nearly 2,800 miles over nearly two years. This intermittent use pattern suggests the vehicle sits stationary for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components, flat spotting on tyres, and internal fluid oxidation despite the low mileage on the odometer. A buyer must specifically inspect the front brake system, as the record flagged a binding caliper in March 2024 at 855 miles. Low-use vehicles frequently suffer from seized pistons or corroded slider pins due to lack of regular movement. You should also check the age of the tyres for cracking or rot, as the January 2026 failure for low tread indicates the rubber reached its service limit before the tread wore out naturally. Inspect the chain for rust and the fork seals for leaks, as long stationary periods can cause seals to dry out and fail once the bike is used regularly.
