2008 Suzuki GSF1250 1.2L Petrol · GF08 EBK

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent MOT test on 28 April 2026 at 22,975 miles. With no recorded defects or advisories across the last six tests, the maintenance trend remains stable. This consistency suggests the motorcycle has been well-maintained and has not suffered from the typical mechanical degradation or structural corrosion often seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,276 miles per year. The data shows a significant period of minimal use between 2013 and 2017, where the bike covered only 169 miles over four years. Since 2020, usage has increased slightly, with a 1,893-mile gap between the June 2024 and April 2026 tests. This low mileage indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though age-related degradation of rubber parts remains a factor given the long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the risks associated with long-term storage. The single failure on 17 January 2020 at 16,275 miles related only to electrical lighting and indicator colour, which was rectified immediately for the subsequent pass. Because the mileage is so low, check for signs of perished brake lines, leaking fork seals, and tyre spotting that occurs from lack of use. Inspect the brake discs for surface pitting and the chain for oxidation to ensure the low usage has not resulted in neglected lubrication during periods of inactivity.
