2012 Honda NC 700 XA-C 0.7L Petrol · SV62 LMK

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test, conducted on 20 December 2021 at 7,400 miles, returned no defects or advisories. This trend indicates that the motorcycle has remained in a functional condition throughout its documented history without exhibiting the mechanical or structural failures typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 529 miles per year. Between August 2017 at 4,009 miles and December 2021 at 7,400 miles, the vehicle covered only 3,391 miles over a four-year period. This low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine, and braking components. However, the significant gap since the last recorded test in late 2021 means the current roadworthiness is no longer verified by recent DVSA data, and the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods during the last four years. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components affected by long-term stationary storage. Low mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber elements, such as perished brake lines, perished fork seals, and aged tyres that lack grip despite tread depth. Check for surface corrosion on the brake discs and chains, which occurs when vehicles are not used. Additionally, verify the condition of the fuel and brake fluids, as moisture absorption can degrade systems over time regardless of the miles recorded.
