1995 Kawasaki ZX-9R 0.9L Petrol · M107 EWV

The vehicle is currently in a stable condition based on its last recorded MOT, though the certification has lapsed. The most recent test on 27 July 2023 at 6,659 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean pass on 10 August 2022 at 6,528 miles. The absence of flagged issues across both tests indicates a vehicle that met all regulatory standards for roadworthiness at that time. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 31 year old machine, averaging roughly 215 miles per year. Between August 2022 and July 2023, the odometer increased by only 131 miles. Such low usage suggests the motorcycle has spent significant periods standing. While this limits mechanical wear on the drivetrain, long-term inactivity often introduces different risks that are not always captured in a brief MOT inspection. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the fuel system and rubber components. Long periods of stagnation can lead to gummed carburettors and perished fuel lines. Check the tyres for flat spots or age-related cracking, as the low mileage suggests they may be old despite having plenty of tread. The brake calipers should be checked for sticking or binding, and the fork seals inspected for leaks caused by oil degradation during storage. Verify the current state of the battery and the integrity of the coolant. Since the last MOT was nearly three years ago, the vehicle has likely been dormant. Ensure the engine reaches operating temperature without overheating and that the exhaust emissions remain within legal limits before returning the bike to regular road use.
