2017 Triumph Tiger 0.8L Petrol · CY17 BXW

The Triumph Tiger presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with all six MOT tests from to recording no defects. The most recent test at , miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring issues or escalating faults were flagged across the period, suggesting the vehicle has been well-maintained. The absence of advisories or critical failures implies the owner prioritized regular servicing, though low mileage may mask certain wear patterns. The vehicle’s mileage of , miles over nine years equates to an average of , miles annually, significantly below the UK’s typical usage for its age. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can lead to component degradation such as brake disc corrosion or suspension stiffness. Notably, the test at , miles and test at , miles show minimal annual increases, raising questions about whether the odometer has been tampered with or if the bike was stored for extended periods. The sparse defect history does not confirm these assumptions but warrants scrutiny. A prospective buyer should conduct a hands-on inspection of the suspension system, particularly the rear shock absorbers and front forks, to check for fluid leaks or stiffness. Brake discs and calipers should be examined for uneven wear or corrosion, as low mileage can accelerate rust in stationary vehicles. The exhaust system and underbody should also be checked for structural integrity, as prolonged inactivity may compromise these components. While the MOT records show no red flags, the low mileage and irregular test intervals necessitate a thorough pre-purchase assessment.
