2008 Suzuki GSXR1000 K8 1.0L Petrol · CP08 OHT

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent clean test history over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 23 June 2025 at 17,412 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This result mirrors the previous four tests back to 2021, indicating that the motorcycle has consistently met minimum standards without major mechanical or structural failures. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old machine, averaging approximately 967 miles per year. Data shows significant consistency in this low usage; for instance, only 124 miles were recorded between the August 2021 and August 2022 tests, while a 2,099-mile gap occurred between June 2024 and June 2025. While this suggests minimal wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals where the bike sat stationary often lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluids rather than mechanical fatigue from distance. Given the lack of recorded faults in the MOT history, a physical inspection must focus on risks associated with low-mileage age. Check the tyres for dry rotting on the sidewalls and the seals on the front forks and rear shock for leaks caused by long standing periods. The buyer should inspect the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use can lead to surface rust that affects braking. Additionally, verify the frame for structural corrosion and check the fuel lines for cracking, as the MOT record does not fully capture the condition of these age-related materials.
