2006 Triumph Scrambler 900 0.9L Petrol · A10 THN

The Triumph Scrambler 900 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 April 2026 at 19,195 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run across the available history. The April 2025 entry shows a failed test on 4 April at 19,010 miles with no defects listed, immediately followed by a pass on the same date at identical mileage, indicating an administrative or presentation failure rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits very low for a 2006 machine. From the 23 February 2023 test at 18,522 miles to the 18 April 2024 test at 18,630 miles the bike covered just 108 miles, then 380 miles to April 2025 and a further 185 miles to April 2026. Over twenty years this equates to roughly 960 miles per year. Such limited use suggests long standing periods, which on a twin-cylinder motorcycle raises the risk of stale fuel, perished seals, and corrosion on unseen components despite the spotless MOT sheet. A buyer should still inspect the machine in person for issues the MOT does not capture. Standing time accelerates degradation of suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake caliper condition even when the tester records no advisories. Check the frame and exhaust for structural rust, confirm the clutch and gearbox operate cleanly, and verify the tyres are not aged-cracked from low use. The record implies a cautious, low-exposure owner who kept the bike legally tested but may have skipped routine mechanical refreshment. No recurring defects appear, yet the absence of advisories across five tests at this age warrants a hands-on check of wear items before purchase.
