2020 Honda NC 750 XD-L 0.7L Petrol · SD20 AEJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to upkeep. The most recent test on 24 July 2026 at 20,040 miles resulted in a failure due to a critically low front tyre tread depth of 1.0mm and a bent front brake lever. While the bike passed just five days later after these repairs, the failure suggests the owner only addresses mechanical and safety issues when forced to by the MOT tester. The mileage profile is low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 3,340 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between July 2023 and July 2024, where the bike covered only 1,167 miles in twelve months. However, usage increased sharply in the following two years, covering 12,284 miles between July 2024 and July 2026. This pattern suggests the vehicle may have sat for long periods previously but is now seeing more frequent use, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components despite the low overall odometer reading. A buyer must inspect the front wheel for signs of the excessive damage recorded in July 2023 at 6,169 miles, as structural integrity in alloy wheels can be compromised by impact. The recurring failure of tyres reaching the legal limit in both 2023 and 2026 highlights a history of neglecting consumable wear. Given the recently reported bent brake lever, the buyer should also check the master cylinder for leaks and ensure the impact that caused the bend did not damage the internal seals or the pivot point.
