2008 Honda CBR 600 RR-8 0.6L Petrol · ST08 JVR

A consistent history of roadworthiness is evident from the records, with the vehicle most recently passing without defects on 14 May 2026. The overall trend is stable, characterized by a high pass rate and a few recurring advisories related to consumables, specifically rear tyre wear and front brake pad limits. The only recorded failure occurred in June 2023 due to headlamp aim being too high, which was rectified for the subsequent pass on the same day. The recorded mileage of 31,512 miles over 18 years represents a low annual average of approximately 1,751 miles. This usage pattern indicates that the vehicle has likely spent extended periods stationary or has been used very sparingly. Mechanically, this suggests that wear on the engine and drivetrain is relatively low, but it increases the importance of inspecting rubber components, seals, and fluids that can degrade during periods of inactivity. Buyer inspection should focus on the braking system and tyre condition, as these have been the primary points of concern in the MOT history. The 2019 advisory regarding front brake lever travel and the 2023 note on front brake pad limits require specific attention. During a test ride, feel for any sponginess or excessive travel in the front brake lever and check for a lack of immediate bite, which would indicate a need for a fluid flush or pad replacement. The recurring advisories for rear tyre wear suggest a history of running tyres close to the legal limit. Inspect the current rear tyre for adequate tread depth and check for any hardening or cracking of the rubber compound, which is common in low-mileage vehicles. Additionally, confirm that the headlamp beam is correctly aligned to ensure the previous failure for excessive height has been permanently resolved.
