Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from significant neglect to more consistent upkeep. The most recent test in September 2025 at 53,291 miles resulted in a pass despite a noisy exhaust, which suggests a potential leak or internal baffle damage that requires monitoring. This is an improvement over the September 2020 failure where the bike failed multiple critical points related to lighting, security, and the drivetrain. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap in recorded mileage between December 2020 at 30,054 miles and July 2023 at 53,286 miles, during which the bike covered over 23,000 miles. This suggests the vehicle may have sat for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components, fluid breakdown, and corrosion in the braking system despite the low overall mechanical wear. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the drive chain and sprockets, as this was a recurring issue, with records noting an excessively loose chain in 2020 and a loose rear chain in 2022. The rear lower suspension arm bush or joint previously flagged for wear in 2020 should also be re-checked to ensure the movement has not developed excessive play. Additionally, given the 2025 advisory regarding a noisy exhaust, inspect the manifold headers for cracks or loose bolts to ensure the system does not fail the next emissions or noise check.
