2007 Suzuki Bandit 0.6L Petrol · AE07 OXH

The 2007 Suzuki Bandit presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent DVSA test on 15 May 2025 at 49,835 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Across the five available MOT entries from January 2021 to May 2025, the vehicle cleared every examination without advisories. This consistent clean sheet indicates a maintenance trend that is steady rather than deteriorating. Recorded mileage sits low for a nineteen-year-old motorcycle, totalling 49,835 miles or roughly 2,600 miles per annum. The test odometer readings reveal extended dormancy: between 14 January 2021 (45,330 miles) and 5 April 2022 (45,332 miles) the machine covered just two miles, implying long-term storage. Subsequent years show modest use, with 569 miles to April 2023, 2,600 miles to April 2024, and 1,334 miles to May 2025. The MOT data is sparse but unblemished, offering no evidence of neglected consumables or mechanical failure. The tester raised no corrosion or structural concerns, yet a 2007 frame may harbour hidden rust at weld points and suspension mounting areas. Low annual mileage and standing periods elevate risk of binding brake calipers and hardened suspension bushes despite no recorded brake or suspension defects. We recommend scrutinising tyre sidewalls for cracking and verifying exhaust integrity for internal rot. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, as five consecutive passes suggest. The minimal recorded faults do not confirm proactive servicing of fluids or drivetrain. Inspect the chain, sprockets, and fork seals in person before purchase.
