2013 Aprilia RS125 0.1L Petrol · SN13 ODW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent inspection. The MOT conducted on April 12, 2024 at 2,353 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating the motorcycle currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure was noted in May 2021 at 2,316 miles, the subsequent pass without advisories suggests that any previous issues were addressed and rectified. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old machine, averaging approximately 181 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the August 2016 test at 2,158 miles and the 2021 test at 2,316 miles, suggesting the bike sat stationary for long periods during this interval. This low mileage minimizes mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but it introduces specific risks related to fluid degradation and rubber perish that are not always captured in a standard MOT test. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection focused on components often affected by long-term storage. Inspect the frame for surface corrosion and check the fuel lines and brake hoses for perished or cracked rubber despite the low mileage. The brake calipers should be checked for seized pistons or binding movement due to lack of use, and the tyres should be evaluated for flat spotting or sidew cracking, as age often impacts rubber before tread depth becomes a concern.
