This 2019 Kawasaki BR 125 has a first-time MOT pass rate of 70.2%, which sits 9.8 points below the UK average of 80%—a meaningful gap that suggests more frequent issues than typical. More concerning is that 21.5% of these bikes have recorded at least one dangerous defect during their MOT history, putting this model firmly in the higher-risk category for safety-critical failures.

With a median mileage of 6,872 miles for a five-year-old bike, these examples are lightly used, yet they're still averaging 0.59 failures and 2.4 advisories per test—indicating design or build weaknesses rather than simply wear-and-tear. Before buying, run an MOT history check on any specific machine and get a pre-purchase inspection focused on suspension, braking, and electrical systems, where these bikes tend to show problems.

We have limited data for the 2019 Kawasaki Br 125 Kkfa — treat the figures below as indicative rather than definitive.
