2019 Lexmoto Venom 0.1L Petrol · WD19 AZJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the available data, though the record is significantly outdated. The last recorded test on 16 May 2022 at 9,341 miles resulted in a pass after an initial failure for a missing reflector and brake issues. Since this test occurred four years ago, there is no recent evidence of compliance, meaning the current roadworthy state of the vehicle is unverified and potentially expired. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old motorcycle, averaging only 1,334 miles per year. While this suggests minimal mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it indicates the vehicle has likely sat for long periods or seen very intermittent use. Low usage often leads to specific issues not captured by mileage alone, such as degradation of rubber seals or the corrosion of hydraulic components. The gap between the 2022 test and current date suggests the vehicle has not undergone professional testing in several years. A buyer must prioritize inspecting the braking system due to the faults flagged during the May 2022 test. The tester identified front brake binding and fluctuations in rear brake effort, which often indicate seized caliper pistons or corroded brake lines in vehicles with low mileage. Given the age and low use, the brake fluid should be checked for moisture content, and the discs should be inspected for pitting or corrosion caused by sitting stationary. Physical inspection should also focus on the tyres for dry rot and flat spotting, as age affects rubber more than mileage in this context. The chain and sprockets require examination for signs of rust or stretching from lack of lubrication. Without a recent MOT record to confirm the structural integrity of the frame, a thorough visual check for corrosion is essential before any purchase.
