2015 Honda CBR 0.5L Petrol · SP15 KWM

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 20 March 2025 at 22,556 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend remains evident across the last five years, suggesting that the motorcycle has been well-maintained and has not suffered from significant mechanical or structural degradation that would trigger a failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old machine, averaging approximately 2,051 miles per year. Between March 2021 and March 2025, the vehicle covered only 2,647 miles, indicating very infrequent use. The interval between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows particularly low usage, with only 89 miles driven recorded over that twelve-month period. While this low mileage reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber parts and fluid-related issues. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by sitting rather than mileage. A buyer must check for dry rot on tyres and perished rubber hoses or seals, as low mileage often leads to material drying out before it wears down. Brake fluid should be tested for moisture content, and brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting caused by lack of use. The chain and sprockets also require examination for seizing or rust, which are common issues on motorcycles that remain stationary for long periods.
