2010 Triumph Speed Triple R 0.7L Petrol · ERZ 2199

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 21 November 2025 at 13,732 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend has persisted across the last five recorded tests, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have remained in a passing condition without the development of recurring faults or escalating mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a sixteen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 858 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2023, the bike covered only 456 miles, indicating it is used only for very short-distance trips or has spent in dry storage for extended periods. While the low mileage generally limits wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between use seen between the June 2021 and November 2022 tests suggest the vehicle may sit stationary, which can lead to specific issues not captured by a standard MOT test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on risks associated with low-mileage storage, specifically the degradation of rubber-based components. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots, as the tread depth is likely sufficient despite the age. Check the brake lines for perished or perished rubber and verify that the fork seals are not weeping oil due to prolonged inactivity. Additionally, inspect the chain for seized links and rust, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface corrosion on exposed metal that are not regularly cleaned and lubricated.
