2011 Triumph Bonneville T 100 (865) 0.9L Petrol · YF61 FYN

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in February 2025 at 3,992 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This lack of recorded faults suggests the motorcycle has been maintained in a condition that meets minimum safety standards without immediate mechanical failure or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fifteen-year-old machine, averaging approximately 266 miles per year. Between April 2022 and February 2025, the bike covered only 1,157 miles, confirming it is used sporadically rather than as a commuter. The gap between the August 2023 and February 2024 tests shows minimal movement, suggesting the vehicle likely sits for long periods between rides. While this low mileage mitigates wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it introduces specific risks related to age-related components and fluid stasis. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by long-term storage rather than mechanical wear. Check for dry rot or cracking in the fuel lines, tyre sidew, and fork seals, which perish due to age regardless of mileage. The brake fluid should be tested for moisture contamination, and the calipers should be inspected for signs of seizing. Additionally, examine the frame for surface corrosion and the chain for oxidation, as low-use cycles do not prevent environmental rust if stored in damp conditions.
