2016 Kawasaki ZX 1.0L Petrol · FG16 KCU

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable history of clean MOT results. The most recent test conducted on 1 May 2026 at 15,060 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This reflects a consistent trend over the last five years where the mechanical components have remained within operational parameters and have not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,500 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of low use between April 2021 (14,546 miles) and August 2022 (14,620 miles), where the vehicle covered only 74 miles in over sixteen months. Recent usage has increased slightly, with 90 miles covered in the last year. This pattern indicates the bike likely sits for long periods, which presents different risks than high-mileage wear on drivetrain or rubber components. While the MOT record shows no failures, a buyer must inspect for issues associated with low-mileage storage. Physical inspection is required to check for dry cracking in tyres and perished rubber hoses, as rubber degrades over time regardless of distance traveled. The buyer should also examine brake fluid for moisture contamination and check for seized calipers which often occurs when a vehicle remains stationary for extended durations. The chain and sprockets should be checked for surface rust or stretching to ensure the low mileage has not led to neglect of the drivetrain.
