2007 Suzuki GSF 1200 K6 1.2L Petrol · G5 FKO

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 25 September 2024 at 22,861 miles , confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. This reflects a stable maintenance trend over the past two years, as all prior tests—including the April 2023 and March 2022 assessments—also passed without failings. The absence of advisories or recurring issues suggests the tester did not identify any latent problems requiring immediate attention. However, the duplicate entry for March 2022 (a failed test followed by an immediate pass at the same mileage) is unusual and may warrant clarification, though it does not directly impact the current roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 22,861 miles over nearly 19 years —approximately 1,203 miles annually —is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. This suggests either very light use, prolonged periods of storage, or potential mileage manipulation. The gaps between tests— 1,405 miles between September 2024 and April 2023 , 1,991 miles between April 2023 and March 2022 , and 2,016 miles between March 2022 and the duplicate entry —are consistent with minimal driving. While low mileage can reduce wear on high-stress components, it also raises questions about fluid changes (brakes, clutch, engine oil) and suspension maintenance, which may have been deferred. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension integrity , particularly the rear suspension bushes and coil springs , given the age of the vehicle. The front and rear brake systems —including caliper binding, disc warping, and master cylinder condition—should be thoroughly checked, as low mileage does not guarantee these have been serviced. Corrosion in the exhaust system, subframe, and wheel arches is another critical area, especially if the bike has been stored in damp conditions. The tyre tread depth and uniformity should be verified, as the lack of MOT failures does not preclude uneven wear from improper alignment or long-term neglect. Finally, the throttle body, fuel injection system, and exhaust emissions —if applicable—should be assessed, as older bikes are prone to carbon buildup and sensor drift, even with minimal use.
