2019 Benelli Tornado Naked T 125 0.1L Petrol · WD19 AYE

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, following a clean pass in its most recent MOT test in November 2025 at 6,915 miles. This result indicates an improving maintenance trend, as the mechanical issues identified in 2023 have been addressed. The transition from a failure in a subsequent test to a defect-free pass suggests the owner took proactive steps to rectify the specific faults flagged by the tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 988 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the May 2022 test at 1,957 miles and the May 2023 test at 3,704 miles, suggesting the bike sat stationary for extended periods. Since then, the mileage has increased more regularly, moving from 3,704 to 6,915 miles. While low mileage suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, perished seals, or brake corrosion, which are not always captured by a standard MOT inspection. A prospective buyer should personally inspect the rear shock absorber to ensure the damping effect remains consistent, as this was a recurring failure point in 2023. The drive chain should also be checked for tension and sprocket wear, given its previous history of being loose. Because of the low mileage and likely periods of sitting, it is vital to inspect the brake discs for pitting and to check the tyres for flat-spotting or cracking from age. Verifying that the front stop lamp remains fully functional will ensure the previous electrical fault was permanently resolved.
