2010 Suzuki GSX 1300 BK8 1.3L Petrol · AE10 AED

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile, with the most recent MOT on 11 May 2023 at 31,231 miles showing a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a period of minor consumable issues that appear to have been addressed. The history shows a transition from intermittent failures and advisories regarding wear items to a clean record, suggesting the motorcycle has undergone recent remedial work to bring it up to standard. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for a 2010 model, averaging approximately 1,952 miles per year. The data shows consistent, gradual increases in distance, such as the jump from 8,467 miles in April 2015 to 12,858 miles in March 2016, and later from 22,940 miles in May 2018 to 27,615 miles in May 2019. While the low mileage suggests light use, the significant gaps between tests, particularly the three-year interval between May 2020 and May 2023, imply the vehicle may have spent extended periods stationary. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade through inactivity rather than just mileage. The MOT history flagged front brake pads nearing minimum limits in both April 2017 and May 2019, and a front tyre worn close to the legal limit in July 2020. Although the 2023 test was clear, the long period of inactivity since that test warrants a close check of the brake fluid condition, caliper operation for sticking, and the overall state of the tyres for age-related perishing or flat spots. The 2019 record also noted a slightly tight rear drive chain. Given the low annual mileage, the chain and sprockets should be inspected for corrosion or seizing from lack of lubrication. Because the vehicle has been used sparingly, checking the battery health and the condition of all electrical indicators—following the 2016 failure regarding direction indicators—is also advisable to ensure the electrical system remains reliable despite the intermittent use.
