Use our detailed year-by-year breakdown and failure analysis below to understand how your specific Nhx 110 Wh-8 is likely to perform.
Motorcycle brakes — 11.1% of failures
Motorcycle brakes issues account for 11.1% of MOT failures on the Honda Nhx 110 Wh-8. Brake-related failures include worn brake pads, corroded brake discs, leaking brake lines, and faulty brake servos. These are safety-critical components — any brake deficiency will result in an MOT fail. Typical repair costs: £150–400. Pre-MOT check: Listen for squealing or grinding noises. Check brake pedal feel — if it feels spongy or goes to the floor, have the system inspected immediately. Look at brake pad thickness through the wheel spokes (minimum 3mm).
Motorcycle tyres and wheels — 8.2% of failures
Motorcycle tyres and wheels issues account for 8.2% of MOT failures on the Honda Nhx 110 Wh-8. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
Motorcycle lighting and signalling — 6.4% of failures
Motorcycle lighting and signalling issues account for 6.4% of MOT failures on the Honda Nhx 110 Wh-8. Motorcycle lighting and signalling issues are a common cause of MOT failure. Regular inspection and maintenance of these components helps ensure your vehicle passes its MOT. Typical repair costs: £100–400. Pre-MOT check: Have this system checked during regular servicing. Look for warning signs like unusual noises, vibrations, or dashboard warning lights.
