2016 Kawasaki SC 0.1L Petrol · YP16 XBR

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a generally stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT conducted on August 16, 2022 at 27,834 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. This followed a failure just one day prior at 27,798 miles due to thin rear brake pads, indicating that the owner was responsive to immediate safety requirements and ensured the vehicle met standards for subsequent testing. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,783 miles per year. Between August 2019 and August 2020, the bike covered 6,834 miles, followed by a period of only 2,081 miles between 2021 and 2022. This pattern suggests the vehicle is used sporadically rather than for commuting. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often leads to degradation of rubber components and fluid acidity if the machine sits stationary for long periods without use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system to ensure the 2022 failure was addressed with quality parts rather than a temporary fix. Given the low annual mileage, check the brake discs for surface pitting or corrosion, which occurs when bikes sit without being scrubbed regularly. Additionally, inspect the fork seals and tyres for cracking or dry spotting, as the age of the components often exceeds their functional life before the tread wear reaches legal limits.
