2018 Suzuki DL 1000 AL8 ABS 1.0L Petrol · EX18 AHK

This vehicle demonstrates an exceptional roadworthiness trend, remaining stable and defect-free across five consecutive years of testing. The most recent MOT on 19 September 2025 at 19,142 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This consistency suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance and a vehicle that has been kept in prime mechanical condition. The mileage is notably low for an eight-year-old motorcycle, averaging roughly 2,393 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady but light, growing from 5,646 miles in July 2021 to 19,142 miles by September 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest periods of heavy commercial use or sudden changes in ownership patterns. Because the MOT record is entirely clean, there are no recurring mechanical failures or structural red flags to highlight. The lack of advisories regarding brake discs, tyre tread, or corrosion is uncommon for a bike of this age and suggests a diligent owner. A physical inspection should focus on the risks associated with low-use vehicles. Check for perished rubber components, such as cracked tyres or brittle brake hoses, which can degrade regardless of mileage. Ensure the battery health is stable and verify that the fluids have been changed according to the manufacturer's time intervals rather than just mileage milestones.
