2020 Lexmoto Assault 125 HJ 125-J E4 0.1L Petrol · WG20 YVN

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward mechanical wear components. The most recent test in November 2025 at 3,329 miles identified a failure on the offside rear shock absorber due to reduced damping effect. While the bike has passed its previous tests, the transition from a clean record to a suspension-related defect indicates that components are beginning to reach the end of their functional life despite the low usage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 555 miles per year. Between the November 2023 test at 1,366 miles and the November 2024 test at 2,508 miles, the vehicle covered only 1,142 miles. This low frequency suggests the bike has been used sparingly or stored for long periods, which can often lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and fluid integrity rather than traditional mileage-based wear. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the offside rear shock absorber to ensure the damping issue has been properly rectified rather than merely adjusted. The 2024 advisory regarding the rear lower tyre worn to the legal limit and the worn drive chain suggests that consumables are requiring replacement due to age and oxidation rather than distance. Inspect the drive chain for seizing or excessive stretching and check the tyres for sidew cracking, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from dry rot when the tread depth remains sufficient.
