Honda Cbr 125 Rw A (2010)
2010 Honda Cbr 125 Rw A
CarHunch analysed 108 real MOT records for the 2010 Honda Cbr 125 Rw A. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2010 Honda CBR 125 is notably less reliable than the UK average, with a first-time pass rate of just 67.5% against the national 80%, and one in five of these bikes (22.2%) have recorded dangerous defects that demand immediate attention before purchase. The low pass rate isn't driven by fuel type variation—petrol models sit at 66.8%—but reflects consistent struggles across the cohort.
These bikes are running light at 10,461 miles median (low for their age), yet still averaging 1.27 failures and 5.6 advisories per test, suggesting inherent mechanical weaknesses rather than wear and tear. Before buying one, get a full pre-purchase inspection focused on the areas flagged as dangerous defects—this model carries real risk if you skip that step.
What to check before buying a 2010 Honda Cbr 125 Rw A
