Our Verdict
A solid purchase option for those seekin
When viewing this ER6, your primary focus should be on verifying the low mileage against the service history, as 23,749 miles is quite low for a nearly 18-year-old motorcycle. Check for any signs of 'age-related' degradation, such as perished rubber hoses or perished tyres, which can occur when a bike is used infrequently.
Ask the seller for evidence of any recent maintenance following the 2025 MOT failure regarding the front tyre. While the failure was minor (incorrectly seated tyre), ensuring the rim and tyre bead are in good condition is essential for safe handling on a naked bike like this.
The 649cc engine is known for being relatively economical for a mid-capacity motorcycle, making it suitable for daily commuting. You should expect moderate fuel costs depending on riding style and urban versus motorway usage.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically manageable, though you should budget for periodic chain and sprocket replacements, oil changes, and tyre upgrades. Insurance groups for the ER6 vary, so it is advisable to get a specific quote for registration FP58UAX before committing to the purchase.
Inspect the front wheel area specifically, noting the 2025 MOT failure for an incorrectly seated front tyre. Ensure the tyre is now seated correctly and that there is no evidence of rim damage or uneven wear.
Beyond the MOT record, check the overall condition of the green bodywork and any exposed components for signs of corrosion or neglect. Given the low mileage, pay close attention to the condition of the chain, sprockets, and brake discs to ensure they haven't suffered from moisture-induced surface rust due to infrequent use.
This 2008 Kawasaki ER6 presents with significantly low mileage for its age, having covered only 23,749 miles since its first registration in December 2008. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes, with only one recorded failure in April 2025 regarding a tyre seating issue. The vehicle's green finish and 649cc engine suggest a well-kept example of this popular middleweight naked bike.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Kawasaki ER6 to provide a statistical comparison.
