2016 KTM 690 0.7L Petrol · CX16 ODT

The 2016 KTM 690 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 21 October 2025 at 29,471 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes since at least 2021. The mileage pattern shows light, consistent use for a ten-year-old machine. The record climbed from 20,459 miles at the 22 July 2021 test to 29,471 miles by October 2025, an average gain of roughly 2,250 miles per year with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps. Each annual test logged a pass with no advisories, so the DVSA data offers no flags on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, or structural corrosion across the timeline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. Low annual mileage and likely standing periods raise the risk of perished seals, flat-spotted tyres, and weeping fork stanchions that a stationary bike will not reveal in a rolling MOT. The absence of advisories means the tester saw no immediate concern, but unchanged annual mileages near 2,000 to 3,000 suggest the previous keeper rode little and may have skipped intermediate servicing. Check the chain and sprocket wear, brake caliper freedom, and coolant condition before purchase. The record implies conscientious MOT compliance yet gives no evidence of mechanical intervention beyond the statutory test.
