2012 TRIUMPH STREET TRIPLE R0.7L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean recent history. The most recent test on 19 July 2025 at 30,209 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows two consecutive years of clean passes in 2024 and 2023, suggesting the motorcycle has been kept in a consistent state of repair over the last few years. The mileage pattern indicates very light usage for a 2012 model, averaging roughly 2,158 miles per year. A significant jump in mileage occurred between August 2015 and September 2016, where the odometer moved from 5,999 to 13,473 miles. Since 2016, the accumulation has remained steady and low, which generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, the low annual mileage suggests the machine may spend extended periods stationary, which can sometimes lead to issues with seals or fluid degradation. The MOT history shows only minor intermittent issues. In August 2023 at 27,500 miles, the tester initially flagged a failure because the rear stop lamp remained illuminated when brakes were released, though this was rectified during the same session. An earlier test in September 2018 at 19,565 miles noted a slightly loose drive chain and fluctuations in both front and rear brake effort. While these were passed as minor advisories or rectified, they highlight the specific areas requiring attention. A prospective buyer should physically inspect the drive chain tension and sprocket wear to ensure the 2018 advisory was properly addressed. Given the low mileage and potential for long periods of sitting, checking for any signs of fluid weeping from forks or engine seals is advisable. The braking system should also be tested for consistent lever feel to ensure no recurrence of the effort fluctuations noted in the 2018 record.
