2003 TRIUMPH TIGER1.0L Petrol

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 14 June 2025 at 20,332 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to October 2021, suggesting the motorcycle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 23 year old machine, averaging roughly 884 miles per year. Between October 2021 and June 2025, the odometer moved from 19,132 to 20,332 miles, confirming the bike covers very little distance annually. While the lack of defects is positive, such low usage often indicates long periods of standing, which can lead to specific degradation not always captured in a standard MOT test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by inactivity. Check for perished rubber seals, cracked tyres, and potential corrosion in the fuel system or brake calipers due to moisture buildup during storage. The failure on 30 April 2024 is an anomaly in the record as no defects were listed, which may suggest a clerical error or a minor administrative fail rather than a mechanical fault. Verify the condition of the fluids and the battery health, as these typically degrade faster on low-mileage vehicles than on those in regular use. Inspect the chain and sprockets for surface rust and ensure the brake discs have not developed pitting. Given the clean MOT history, the primary risk is not wear and tear but the effects of stagnation.
