2002 Kawasaki ZR-7 0.7L Petrol · FP02 TWM

The 2002 Kawasaki ZR-7 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 February 2026 at 39,844 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 7 November 2024 at 37,679 miles confirms no outstanding advisories have accumulated across the visible history. Recorded mileage sits at 39,844 against roughly 24 years of age, an average of about 1,660 miles per year. The bike covered only 4,165 miles between the October 2022 test at 27,828 miles and the February 2026 pass, with the bulk logged before late 2023. A one-day fail on 6 November 2024 at 37,679 miles preceded the pass next day with no defects listed, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The sparse, clean record shows no corrosion, brake, suspension, or emissions concerns raised by any tester. Given the low annual use and absence of flagged wear, the buyer should still verify in person that long stationary periods have not caused tyre perishing, degraded fork seals, or stale brake fluid. The clean MOT sheet offers no evidence of structural rust or worn suspension bushes, but a visual check of the exhaust, chassis welds, and caliper movement remains sensible on a machine of this age. The history implies a cautious owner who stored the bike rather than rode it hard. No recurring defects point to deferred upkeep, yet pre-purchase inspection of consumables and standing-related deterioration is warranted before purchase.
