2017 Suzuki DL 650 X AL7 0.6L Petrol · FY67 ADZ

The 2017 Suzuki DL650X AL7 remains roadworthy with a consistently stable maintenance record, confirmed by the September 2025 MOT test at 14,840 miles where the tester logged no defects or advisories. Every annual examination from September 2021 through September 2025 returned a pass with no minor or major items flagged. This unbroken clean history indicates the previous keepers either addressed any required work before each test or the machine saw such light use that wear never breached test thresholds. Registered in 2017, the bike shows 14,840 miles on the clock as of the latest test, averaging roughly 1,650 miles per year. The odometer reveals a front-loaded mileage spike: between 27 September 2021 at 10,976 miles and 19 September 2022 at 14,137 miles it covered 3,161 miles, a comparatively active period. Subsequent intervals collapsed sharply. The September 2023 test at 14,543 miles added just 406 miles, the 2024 test at 14,791 miles a mere 248, and the 2025 test at 14,840 miles only 49. Such deceleration points to long-term storage over the past three years. No MOT entry lists corrosion, worn suspension bushes, binding brakes, or exhaust emissions failures, so the official record gives no direct warning on structural or mechanical condition. A buyer should still physically inspect components that suffer from prolonged standing. Check the tyre sidewalls for cracking and the tread for flat spots caused by static load. Examine brake calipers for binding and discs for surface rust pitting. Suspension linkage and fork seals may have dried or seized; lubricate and cycle them during viewing. The sparse but clean MOT data suggests a low-stress life, yet minimal running invites hidden degradation absent from DVSA records. A pre-purchase inspection focusing on rubber perishables, brake function, and chassis integrity remains prudent despite the flawless test lineage.
