2008 Suzuki AN 400 K8 0.4L Petrol · CE08 KPF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend following a minor setback. The most recent MOT test on 30 June 2022 at 31,179 miles returned no defects or advisories, indicating the motorcycle was in a good mechanical state at that time. This follows a clean pass in 2021 and 2020, suggesting that the primary components remained functional without immediate degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,732 miles per year. Data shows significant periods of inactivity, for instance, the vehicle covered only 210 miles between September 2018 and May 2020. The gap between the June 2021 and June 2022 tests is even more pronounced, with the odometer increasing only 27 miles over the year. This low usage suggests the bike has spent long durations stationary, which often leads to age-related degradation of rubber components and fluid perishables rather than mechanical wear from distance. A buyer should focus physical inspection on risks associated with low-mileage, long-term storage. While the record shows no recurring mechanical failures, the lack of use increases the likelihood of seized brake calipers, perished fuel lines, and dry-rott fork seals. Inspect the frame for deep-seated structural corrosion and check the tyres for sidewall cracking despite ample tread depth. Given that the last recorded test was over four years ago, the vehicle is currently overdue for an MOT, and a comprehensive mechanical check is required to ensure no hidden faults have developed during the extended period of non-use.
