2018 Suzuki Gsxr 1000 RAL8 1.0L Petrol · AF68 LKN

The 2018 Suzuki GSX-R1000 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 March 2026 at 6,524 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 816 miles per year against an eight-year lifespan, marking this machine as exceptionally low-use. The record shows 2,927 miles at the 24 May 2022 test, rising to 4,304 miles by 23 April 2024, then 5,291 miles on 26 April 2025, and 6,524 miles in March 2026. No test appears for 2023, leaving a gap between May 2022 and April 2024, though the mileage gain of 1,377 over that span stays consistent with light riding. The four recorded tests carry zero advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, steering, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. A clean MOT sheet does not exempt the buyer from physical inspection. Long standing periods between use invite fork seal weepage, flat-spotted tyres, and corroded brake discs from moisture ingress. The absence of advisories means no tester flagged binding calipers or worn linkage, yet a garage check of chain tension, coolant condition, and wheel bearing play remains sound practice given the idle intervals. Previous keepers clearly avoided neglect severe enough to trigger failures or advisories. The sparse, defect-free record implies careful storage more than hard use. A pre-purchase glance at the frame welds, swingarm pivots, and radiator fins will confirm the paper trail holds up in the metal.
