2007 Honda CBR125R 0.1L Petrol · VX07 RNN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in June 2023 at 40,962 miles resulted in a pass, but noted front brake pads approaching their minimum limit. This follows a pattern seen in the 2018 failure where multiple safety-critical items like tyre tread and seat security were identified simultaneously. While the bike has passed its subsequent tests, the history suggests components are often only addressed once they reach an MOT failure threshold. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 40,962 miles is remarkably low, averaging approximately 2,156 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between July 2019 and June 2023, where the motorcycle covered only 5,615 miles over four years. This low mileage suggests the bike may have sat for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and fuel system issues that are not reflected in mileage figures alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and drivetrain components flagged in previous records. The 2017 test highlighted a grabbing rear brake and worn pivots, while the 2023 test warned of thinning front pads. Given the low-use pattern, the drive chain should be inspected for seized links or excessive stretch, as it was previously noted as being loose in 2017. The noisy exhaust noted in 2017 also warrants a check for internal corrosion or loose mounting bolts, as these are common on older Hond of this era regardless of mileage.
