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 pattern of minor electrical and mechanical oversights. The most recent test in July 2025 at 34,371 miles passed but noted a defective nearside front indicator lens and an incorrectly positioned clutch lever. While these are non-critical defects, they follow a history of minor lighting and adjustment issues that suggest a focus on passing-only repairs rather than preventative mechanical overhaul. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,432 miles per year. There is a significant usage gap between May 2022 at 31,989 miles and May 2023 at 33,837 miles, where the bike covered relatively little distance. This indicates the machine may have sat for long periods, which often leads to degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and fluids despite the low mechanical wear on the drivetrain. A buyer must pay close attention to the steering assembly, as the steering head bearings were flagged as stiff or notchy in June 2024 at 33,320 miles. The braking system also presents a point of concern; the rear brake disc was noted as worn across three consecutive tests between 2022 and 2023. Furthermore, the failure in April 2022 due to an excessively distorted front wheel necessitates a physical inspection of the rim's structural integrity to ensure the previous impact has not caused hairline cracks or permanent misalignment.
