2003 Kawasaki EX500 E9 0.5L Petrol · AE03 AHZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 23 June 2025 at 35,844 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories. While the bike failed tests on 16 June 2025 and 28 February 2023, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues resolved immediately. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 23 year old machine, averaging roughly 1,558 miles per year. Between 13 March 2023 and 23 June 2025, the odometer increased by only 1,942 miles. This low usage suggests the bike has spent significant time stationary, which often presents different mechanical risks than high-mileage wear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade during periods of inactivity. Check for perished rubber seals, cracked tyres, and potential corrosion on the frame or swingarm. The absence of recorded brake or suspension faults in the MOT history is positive, but the low mileage means the buyer must verify that the brake fluid is fresh and that the calipers are not seizing. Inspect the fuel system for signs of varnish or gumming if the bike has sat for long intervals. Ensure the battery holds a charge and the coolant is free of contaminants. Because the MOT record is unusually clean, a manual check of the chain tension and sprocket wear is necessary to confirm the bike has been maintained beyond the minimum legal requirements.
