2005 Suzuki Gsxr 600 XK5 0.6L Petrol · AIG 4937

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean pass on June 20, 2026 at 21,670 miles. This result continues a stable trend of perfect scores across the last five tests. The absence of recorded defects or advisories suggests the motorcycle has been consistently maintained and has not suffered from the mechanical degradation or structural failures typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 2005 model, averaging approximately 1,032 miles per year. There is a notable usage gap between November 2021 and May 2023, where the bike covered only 77 miles over seventeen months. Since the 2023 test, usage has become more regular, with 5,324 miles recorded between the May 2023 and June 2026 tests. This low-frequency use typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of age-related degradation in fluids and sitting stationary. Despite the clean MOT history, an in-person inspection must focus on components affected by time and stationary storage. A buyer should check for perished rubber parts, including brake fluid lines, fork seals, and tyres, which can crack regardless of low mileage. Inspect the frame for surface corrosion, particularly around mounting points, as the MOT tester does not always detect minor structural rust on older frames. Given the low mileage, verify that the suspension shock absorbers are not leaking and that brake calipers have not seized from long periods of disuse.
