2011 Kawasaki EX250 0.2L Petrol · EN11 KNK

The roadworthiness status of this motorcycle remains stable, as evidenced by the clean pass recorded during the most recent inspection on 22 May 2023 at 8,278 miles. With no defects or advisories noted in the last two consecutive tests, the machine appears to have been maintained to a functional standard. The absence of flagged mechanical issues suggests that the primary systems were in good working order at the time of the last assessment. The recorded mileage of 8,278 over a fifteen-year lifespan indicates a very low usage pattern, averaging approximately 552 miles per annum. The 999-mile increase between the September 2021 test and the May 2023 test confirms the bike remains in occasional use rather than being entirely dormant. While low mileage often preserves engine internals, it can also lead to issues such as fuel system degradation or seized components if the vehicle has experienced extended periods of storage. Prospective buyers should prioritise a thorough inspection of rubber components, including tyres, fork seals, and coolant hoses, as these items can perish due to age regardless of the low mileage. Check the fuel tank internally for signs of corrosion caused by stale fuel and ensure the brake fluid has been flushed recently, as neglected hydraulic fluid is a common oversight on low-use motorcycles. Examine the chain and sprockets for surface rust or stiff links that may have developed during long periods of inactivity. Given the clean MOT history, the mechanical integrity appears sound, but a physical check of the suspension damping and electrical charging system remains essential to confirm that the bike is ready for regular operation.
