1983 Suzuki GSX1100ES 1.1L Petrol · A30 JTT

The Suzuki GSX1100ES passed its most recent MOT on 6 June 2023 at 69,943 miles with no defects recorded, placing its maintenance trend as stable on paper. The single clean test result gives no evidence of worsening faults or recurring advisories across the recorded history. The odometer shows 69,943 miles against a 1983 build date, an average of roughly 1,627 miles per year. Such low annual use over 43 years suggests extended periods of standing rather than regular road use. The MOT record contains only the 2023 entry, so no mileage jumps or gaps between tests can be assessed from the data supplied. A buyer should still inspect the machine in person for age-related issues the MOT may not capture on a one-off pass. Long storage commonly degrades suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake calipers through inactivity rather than wear. Check the frame and cycle parts for corrosion and confirm the brake discs and exhaust emissions remain within limits. Given the sparse history and low mileage, previous ownership likely involved light seasonal use. The clean 2023 test supports roadworthiness at that point, but a fresh examination is advised before purchase given the three-year gap to today's date.
