2016 Triumph Bonneville 1.2L Petrol · SM16 LPX

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent test conducted on 3 June 2025 at 9,002 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This consistent string of clean sheets over the last five years indicates that the motorcycle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from significant mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging 900 miles per year. Between June 2021 and June 2025, the vehicle covered only 3,866 miles, moving from 5,136 to 9,002 miles. While low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between tests suggest the bike may spend significant periods standing stationary. The mileage accumulation is linear and predictable, showing no signs of odometer tampering or sudden spikes in heavy-duty-distance use. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by age and inactivity rather than mileage. Check the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking, as low-mileage rubber often degrades despite having deep tread. Examine the brake fluid for moisture ingress and inspect fork seals for signs of weeping, which can occur when seals dry out. Additionally, verify chain lubrication and corrosion to ensure the low-use pattern has not led to surface rust or seized links.
