2022 Suzuki Gsxs 1000 GT+ 1.0L Petrol · DG22 ADZ

This Suzuki GSXS 1000 GT+ demonstrates a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed both its most recent MOT on 13 March 2026 and the preceding test on 20 March 2025 without any recorded defects or advisories. The absence of recurring issues across two consecutive tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the lack of faults does not preclude hidden wear—particularly in high-stress components like suspension bushes, chain tensioning systems, or throttle body carbon build-up, which often go unnoticed without a thorough inspection. The most recent test occurred just four months ago , placing it within the DVSA’s recommended 12-month interval for motorcycles, though the low mileage means the next due date is not imminent. The recorded mileage of 9,588 miles at the time of the latest MOT reflects unusually light usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging just 2,397 miles annually over the past four years. This suggests prolonged periods of inactivity, which could accelerate degradation in rubber components (tyres, seals, hoses) or lead to battery sulfation if the electrical system was not regularly engaged. The gap between tests— 2,490 miles between March 2025 and March 2026—is within acceptable limits, but the overall low mileage pattern may indicate the bike has spent extended time stored, potentially exposing it to moisture-related corrosion in critical areas like the frame’s underseal or electrical connectors. A prospective buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the suspension components , particularly the rear shock absorbers and front forks, for leaks or excessive play, as these are prone to deterioration even with minimal use. The chain and sprocket should be examined for proper tension and wear, as neglected chains can cause premature damage to the final drive. Given the low mileage, the battery warrants immediate testing—especially if the bike has been stationary for prolonged periods—as lead-acid units can fail catastrophically after just two years of disuse. Finally, check for corrosion around the exhaust system’s heat-shield gaskets and frame seams, as standing water can accelerate rust in high-stress areas. While the MOT history is clean, these are the most likely areas where deferred maintenance could have silently progressed.
