The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 11 October 2025 at 16,140 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable trend over the last five years. This consistency suggests that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters without recurring failures or significant degradation-related issues. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 800 miles per year. Between October 2021 at 15,019 miles and October 2025 at 16,140 miles, the vehicle covered only 1,121 miles, indicating very infrequent use. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between use often increase the risk of age-related degradation in rubber-based components and fluid breakdown, which a standard MOT test may not fully capture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to stationary storage rather than mechanical wear. Inspect the tyres for dry cracking, fuel lines, brake hoses, and fork seals, as these materials perish over time regardless of distance traveled. Check the brake fluid for moisture contamination and ensure the calipers have not seized due to periods of inactivity. Given the low mileage and age, verifying the structural integrity of the frame for deep-seated corrosion is essential to ensure the bike has been stored in a dry environment.
