KAWASAKI ZZR6002002 · 0.6L PETROL

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from mechanical repairs to reactive consumable replacement. The most recent test in October 2025 at 48,728 miles passed despite the tester flagging both front and rear brake pads as approaching their minimum limits. This indicates a requirement for immediate attention following the October 2024 test which showed no defects, suggesting that while the bike is functional, components are now reaching the end of their service life. At 24 years old, the recorded mileage of 48,728 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,030 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent, with only 1,291 miles covered between October 2024 and October 2025, and roughly 2,000 miles between March 2023 and October 2024. This low mileage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine but often increases the risk of degradation in rubber components and seals due to age and periods of inactivity. A buyer must focus specifically on the mechanical issues identified during the March 2023 failure. The record notes an oil leak from the top of the engine and a slow throttle return, both of which indicate potential gasket failure or carburetor neglect that require a thorough inspection to ensure they have been rectified rather than hidden. Furthermore, the noted wear on the central rear lower suspension arm pin and bush from 2023 should be re-checked to ensure the movement has not worsened, as these components can affect handling stability over time. Given the bike's age and low usage, the physical inspection should also account for perished brake lines, seized caliper sliders, and corrosion on the frame. The transition from a clean record in 2022 to multiple mechanical defects in 2023 suggests the vehicle is entering a phase where age-related maintenance becomes more frequent. Verifying that the oil leak is fully resolved and that the throttle linkage is crisp is essential before proceeding.
