2016 MV Agusta Brutale 0.8L Petrol · SP65 AZL

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a consistent history of passes across its testing life. The most recent test in July 2025 at 5,484 miles noted an advisory for a noisy exhaust, which suggests a potential leak or loose fitting in the exhaust system rather than a structural failure. Despite this minor observation, the motorcycle has shown no significant mechanical or safety defects over the last four inspection cycles. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old machine, averaging approximately 548 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between September 2021 at 5,002 miles and June 2024 at 5,474 miles, during which the vehicle covered only 472 miles over nearly three years. This sporadic usage suggests the bike has spent long periods in a stationary state. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, it often introduces risks related to fluid degradation and rubber component perish that MOT records do not fully capture. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components affected by long-term storage and low mileage. Check for flat spots on the tyres, corrosion on the brake discs, and seized calipers due to dry seals. The noisy exhaust advisory from the 2025 test requires a close look at the manifold bolts and heat shields for securing. Given the low mileage, also inspect the fuel lines and brake hoses for cracking or degradation, as age impacts these materials regardless of the distance of use.
