2014 Moto Guzzi Norge 1200 GT 8V 1.2L Petrol · WD63 WPM

A consistent pattern of clean roadworthiness defines this vehicle's recent history, with the most recent test on 15 April 2026 showing no defects. Since a brake-related failure in early 2018, the motorcycle has maintained a stable record of passing inspections without any recorded advisories or mechanical failures. This trend of consecutive passes from 2019 through to the latest 2026 inspection indicates that the components subject to MOT scrutiny have remained within legal operating limits for several years. The recorded mileage of 51,503 miles over a twelve-year period represents a relatively low annual accumulation of approximately 4,292 miles. This usage profile suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to high-frequency, long-distance commuting, which often results in more rapid wear on consumables such as brake pads, tyres, and drive chains. However, the gap in testing between 2019 and 2022 should be noted, as extended periods of lower usage can sometimes lead to different mechanical considerations compared to high-mileage vehicles, such as the hardening of rubber seals or the stagnation of fluids. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, specifically addressing the historical failure regarding a binding front brake and excessive fluctuation of brake effort recorded in February 2018. While this issue was resolved prior to the subsequent clean tests, it is prudent to check for any signs of uneven pad wear or sticking caliper pistons. During a test ride, pay close attention to the front brake lever feel; any suddenness, pulsing, or lack of progressive modulation could indicate underlying issues with the hydraulic system or the brake discs themselves. Further attention should be directed toward the drivetrain and suspension components to ensure the low-mileage usage has not resulted in any seizing or degradation of moving parts. Listen for any irregular knocks or vibrations through the handlebars or footrests when traversing uneven surfaces, which could signal wear in the suspension linkages or steering head bearings. Given the age of the vehicle, a visual check of the brake lines for any signs of perished rubber or weeping at the connections is also a necessary step to ensure the integrity of the braking circuit remains consistent with the recent passing records.
