2017 Lexmoto Titan 125 Zn 125 T 8f

CarHunch analysed 330 real MOT records for the 2017 Lexmoto Titan 125 Zn 125 T 8f. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2017 Lexmoto Titan 125 has a 60.6% first-time pass rate—significantly below the 80% UK average—which suggests reliability issues are fairly common on these bikes. The dangerous defect rate of 13.3% is moderate, but combined with the low pass rate, it signals you should budget for regular maintenance and inspections.

With a median mileage of only 8,680 miles for a seven-year-old bike, these machines aren't being ridden hard, yet they still fail MOT at a high rate—pointing to age-related wear and build quality rather than abuse. Expect around 0.46 failures and 1.9 advisories per test on average; before buying, have an independent mechanic check the brakes, electrics, and exhaust system, as these areas tend to be the weak points on budget 125cc bikes.

What to check before buying a 2017 Lexmoto Titan 125 Zn 125 T 8f

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
