2006 KTM 990 Adventure 1.0L Petrol · BU06 EPD

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 21 March 2026 at 46,588 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This clean streak across the last five tests suggests that the motorcycle has been well-maintained by previous owners and has not suffered from the mechanical failures or structural corrosion common in bikes of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twenty-year-old machine, averaging approximately 2,300 miles per year. There is a notable gap between July 2020 and March 2021 where the bike covered only 128 miles, indicating a period of stationary storage. Since 2022, the usage has become more consistent, with roughly 9,000 miles covered between the 37,521 and 46,588 mile marks. This low mileage generally limits wear on the engine and drivetrain, though it introduces specific risks regarding age-related degradation rather than mechanical fatigue. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection must focus on components often affected by low-mileage use and age. Rubber-based items such as fork seals, tyre boots, and brake lines should be checked for cracking or perished despite having deep tread. The buyer should also inspect the fuel system for varnish and ensure the calipers have not seized during long periods of inactivity. Given the bike's age, verifying the condition of the fluids and the integrity of the suspension bushings is essential to ensure the mechanical state is as sound as the digital record suggests.
