2017 KTM 1290 Superduke GT 17 1.3L Petrol · CP67 DLZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test on 24 September 2025 at 12,492 miles resulted in a failure due to a front tyre tread depth of only 1.0mm. While the bike passed immediately following this rectification, the failure indicates the owner waits until components reach legal minimums before replacing them. The overall trend remains stable, but the recurring issues with tyres suggest a disregard for preventative consumable maintenance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,388 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage noted by the 4,895-mile interval recorded between the September 2023 test and the October 2024 test, followed by even lower accumulation in the following year. Such low mileage suggests the bike sits stationary for long periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, fluid oxidation, and battery health despite the low mechanical wear. The data confirms the vehicle has been used sparingly, likely as a seasonal or secondary commuter vehicle. A buyer must specifically inspect the braking system, as the October 2024 test flagged fluctuations in brake effort on both the front and rear assemblies. This symptom often indicates warped discs or seizing calipers, which can be exacerbated by the bike sitting idle. Given the low mileage, also check for flat spots on the tyres and dry cracking in the sidewalls. With the history of worn tyres in 2022 and 2025, a physical inspection of the current rubber compound is vital to ensure they are not past their shelf life despite having sufficient tread.
