1987 SUZUKI GS4500.4L PETROL

The roadworthiness of this vehicle cannot be verified due to a complete lack of testing data for nearly seventeen years. The last recorded inspection on 14 September 2009 at 34,020 miles showed a pass with no defects. Because no tests have been performed since that date, there is no objective evidence to suggest a stable maintenance trend or the current mechanical integrity of the motorcycle. The vehicle is effectively unvalidated for road use. The recorded mileage of 34,020 miles is exceptionally low for a vehicle of nearly forty years, averaging fewer than 900 miles per year. However, the seventeen-year gap between the last MOT and the current date suggests the motorcycle has likely spent long periods in storage. Low mileage often masks underlying degradation that occurs regardless of distance travelled. The absence of recent annual or annual inspections means the state of the fuel system, seals, and rubber components remains unknown and potentially prone to failure after long-term sitting. A buyer must conduct a comprehensive physical inspection focusing on structural integrity, specifically the frame and swingarm for deep-seated corrosion. Aged rubber components such as fork seals, fuel lines, and tyres are likely perished or developed dry cracks. The braking system should be checked for seized calipers and perished hydraulic lines resulting from the lack of use. Given the age and the stagnant history, a thorough check of the electrical wiring and engine seals is mandatory before this vehicle is considered for roadworthiness.
