2008 Suzuki GSX1300R-Z 1.3L Petrol · FX08 XKV

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent MOT test conducted in March 2026 at 15,807 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the clean records seen in previous years. This consistency suggests that the motorcycle has been well-maintained and meets all regulatory requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old machine, averaging fewer than 900 miles per year across its entire life. Between March 2022 at 14,331 miles and March 2026 at 15,807 miles, the bike covered only 1,476 miles. While this low usage indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine-related components, the infrequent intervals between tests suggest the vehicle may have sat for long periods, which can lead to the aging of rubber components and fluids rather than mechanical wear. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection focusing on the risks associated with low-mileage storage. Particular attention is required for dry rot on tyres and perished brake lines, which often fail regardless of tread depth. The buyer should also check for corrosion on the fuel tank and fork seals, as stagnant fluids can cause seals to degrade over time. Since the record does not flag structural rust, verifying the integrity of the frame and the condition of the suspension remains essential to ensure the low-mileage status has not masked hidden environmental damage.
