Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. The recent MOT fai
Given the MOT failure for an 'excessively distorted' front wheel in October 2025 and the subsequent advisory for a 'distorted bead rim', you should scrutinize the chassis and wheels for signs of heavy impact. Ensure that the wheel distortion has been properly rectified rather than just patched to pass the test.
Check the service history specifically for top-end rebuilds, as these 293cc engines require regular maintenance. Negotiate the price based on the imminent need to replace the front and rear brake discs, which were flagged as worn and pitted in the November 2025 record.
Running costs for a 293cc petrol engine will be dominated by maintenance rather than fuel. As a specialist machine, it requires more frequent servicing than a standard road bike, including periodic piston and ring replacements.
Insurance and tax will be relatively low given the engine size, but maintenance costs can be high if parts are replaced frequently due to off-road use. The estimated annual running cost is approximately £600-£900, depending on usage levels.
Prioritise the wheels and braking system. The November 2025 MOT noted that both the front and rear brake discs are worn, pitted, or scored; check for deep grooves or warping. The front wheel has a history of distortion (failure in October 2025, advisory in November 2025), so inspect the rim for any remaining bends or cracks.
Additionally, refer back to the 2022 MOT advisories which noted slight play in both the front and rear wheel bearings and a worn rear suspension joint. Verify if these components have been replaced or if they still exhibit movement.
This 2012 orange KTM 300 has recorded 7,406 miles. The MOT history reveals a gap in testing between 2022 and 2025, with a recent failure in October 2025 concerning wheel distortion and lighting. The most recent pass in November 2025 includes several advisories regarding the condition of the brake discs and wheel rims.
No aggregate MOT data is available to provide a general reliability trend for the KTM 300 model.
