Our Verdict

Recommend with caution. While the vehicl

The primary focus for a buyer should be the gap in the MOT history from May 2023 to September 2026. You must establish why the vehicle has not been tested during this period and whether it has been in long-term storage. If the bike has been stationary, check for a degraded battery and ensure the fuel has not perished in the tank.

Request the full service history to see if maintenance was carried out regardless of the low mileage. Because the mileage is so far below the model average, ensure that tyres and fluids have been refreshed, as these degrade over time even without use.

The 471cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency and accessibility, typically falling into a low annual road tax bracket. Insurance costs are generally competitive for this model, as it is a common choice for A2 licence holders.

Typical maintenance costs for Honda's small-capacity twins are modest, though costs may increase if the vehicle requires a full 'refresh' after a long period of inactivity. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, and basic servicing, are relatively low.

Inspect the tyres and wheel bearings carefully, as these are among the top failure reasons for this model across the aggregate data. Given the low mileage and the MOT gap, check the tyre sidewalls for cracking (perishing) and ensure the brakes are not seized.

Verify the condition of the registration plate, as this is a common MOT failure point for this model. Finally, check for any signs of corrosion on the frame or chain, which can occur if a bike is stored in a damp environment without regular use.

This red 2018 Honda CB (471cc) is a very low-mileage example, with only 2,307 miles recorded at its last MOT in May 2023. The available MOT history shows two passes with no defects recorded. However, as the last recorded test was over three years ago, the current roadworthiness is unverified.

The Honda CB is highly regarded for reliability, evidenced by a 93.4% average MOT pass rate across 9,681 analysed vehicles.
