2006 Kawasaki Z1000 1.0L Petrol · FH06 DLX

The Kawasaki Z1000 presents as roadworthy following a passed MOT on 10 November 2025 at 66,508 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with every successful test showing a clean sheet and no advisories. A failed test on 7 November 2025 at the same mileage was logged with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, immediately rectified by the pass three days later. Recorded mileage sits at 66,508 against a 2006 build, averaging roughly 3,325 miles per year. The bike saw 65,684 miles in June 2023, 66,030 by June 2024, and 66,508 by November 2025. This is low annual use with no gaps exceeding two years between tests. The sparse history shows no rapid accumulation or sudden lay-up pattern, though the 2021 to 2023 gap of nearly two years suggests limited riding in that window. With no advisories or defects across the five tests, the record implies conscientious basic upkeep and no flagged wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, calipers, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still inspect in person for age-related perishing of coolant hoses, fork seal weeping, and exhaust emissions compliance, as these are not always captured in a clean MOT. The 2025 fail with zero defects warrants confirmation that the V5 and test certificate match and no mileage discrepancy exists. Standing periods implied by low mileage can allow tyre sidewall cracking and caliper seizure despite a clean sheet. Verify chain and sprocket tension, check for pitting on the brake discs, and confirm the battery and charging system hold under load before purchase.
