Our Verdict
A solid option for a superbike enthusias
When inspecting this 998cc machine, your primary focus should be the front suspension. The MOT history shows oil misting on both the nearside and offside shock absorbers in 2023 and 2025. Even though the 2026 MOT passed with no defects, you should visually inspect the fork seals and rear shock for any signs of fresh weeping or residue.
Additionally, check the exhaust system thoroughly. The 2023 MOT noted a noisy exhaust, which can sometimes indicate loose mounting points or internal degradation. Ensure the engine note is consistent and that there are no unusual vibrations or leaks from the manifold or silencer. Given the age of the bike, verify that the fuel system and tyres are in good order, as these are vital for a high-performance petrol motorcycle.
As a high-capacity 998cc superbike, running costs will be higher than a standard commuter. Fuel economy will be relatively low, depending heavily on riding style, and insurance groups for ZX-10R models are typically high due to their performance capabilities.
Maintenance costs for a 2007 model should account for specialist parts and high-performance consumables like tyres and brake pads. Expect an estimated annual running cost in the region of £1,200-£1,600, covering fuel, insurance, and routine mechanical upkeep.
Specifically inspect the front suspension components. The MOT history recorded light oil misting on the nearside front shock in 2025 and the offside front shock in 2023. You must confirm that the most recent 2026 test truly addressed these issues and that no new leaks have developed.
Secondly, pay close attention to the exhaust assembly. Following the 'exhaust noisy' advisory in 2023, check all mounting bolts, heat shields, and the integrity of the exhaust system to ensure the issue was resolved. Finally, check the overall cleanliness of the engine area to see if any oil leaks are being masked by general grime.
This 2007 Kawasaki ZX-10R in Green has covered 20,465 miles since its first registration in April 2007. The MOT history shows a relatively low-mileage example with a recent clean pass in May 2026. However, the record indicates intermittent issues with shock absorber oil misting and exhaust noise in previous years.
No aggregate reliability data is available for the Kawasaki ZX-10R to provide a model-wide comparison.
