Motorcycle brakes — 8.1% of failures

Motorcycle brakes issues account for 8.1% of MOT failures on 2020 Lexmoto Urban 125 Lj 125 T-16 models. 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 suspension issues account for 8.1% of MOT failures on 2020 Lexmoto Urban 125 Lj 125 T-16 models.

Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
