Our Verdict

A reasonably well-maintained classic sportbike, but proceed with caution regarding suspension and exhaust wear. It is a viable purchase provided the recent lack of odometer readings is clarified.

Focus your negotiation on the suspension and exhaust system. The MOT history reveals a recurring theme of front shock absorber issues, including a total seal failure in 2016 and 'light misting' as late as 2018. Ensure the forks have been fully overhauled recently rather than just patched. Similarly, exhaust leaks were noted in both 2015 and 2018; check for corrosion or cracks in the headers and center section.

Request a full service history to see if the valve clearances have been checked, as this is critical for an 899cc engine of this age. Pay close attention to the brake discs; a distorted nearside front disc was flagged as an advisory for three consecutive years (2015-2016), so verify if these were ever replaced or if the bike still suffers from brake judder.
