2019 Kawasaki Bx 125 Akfa
CarHunch analysed 254 real MOT records for the 2019 Kawasaki Bx 125 Akfa. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2019 Kawasaki BX 125 has a first-time MOT pass rate of 74.7%, which sits 5.3 percentage points below the UK average of 80% — a meaningful gap that suggests these bikes need more attention than most. More concerning, 22.1% of vehicles have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, which is well above acceptable and should give any buyer pause.
With a median mileage of just under 9,000 miles for a five-year-old bike, these are lightly used machines, yet they're still averaging 0.64 failures and 3.1 advisories per test. This points to maintenance issues that don't correlate with hard use, so if you're considering one, budget for a thorough pre-purchase inspection and factor in regular servicing costs before committing.
What to check before buying a 2019 Kawasaki Bx 125 Akfa
