1994 Kawasaki EN500 0.5L Petrol · L994 KFL

Based on the official DVSA MOT records, this 1994 Kawasaki EN500 presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test, conducted on 21 December 2021 at 32,891 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. The preceding test on 26 July 2019 at 32,406 miles also passed with no advisories or failures. This indicates a consistent pattern of compliance across the two available inspections, with no recurring mechanical or structural faults appearing in the history. The maintenance trend is stable and clean. The mileage pattern reveals notably low annual usage. Between the July 2019 test and the December 2021 test, the odometer moved just 485 miles over approximately two years and five months. The total recorded mileage of 32,891 miles across roughly 32 years of registration equates to approximately 1,028 miles per year, which is substantially below average for a motorcycle of this type. The gap between the two recorded MOT entries is unusually long, spanning over two years, which may reflect extended periods of storage or very light seasonal use rather than regular commuting. No rapid mileage accumulation is evident between the two data points. Despite the clean MOT history, the age of this machine demands careful physical inspection. A 1994 motorcycle will be susceptible to age-related deterioration regardless of mileage, particularly rubber suspension bushes, fork seals, brake hoses, and fuel system components such as carburettor seals and fuel lines. Standing for extended periods can cause tyre sidewall cracking, seized brake calipers, and corroded brake discs even when mileage remains low. The exhaust system and mounting points should be inspected for corrosion, particularly around welds and joints where structural integrity can degrade over decades. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the front and rear suspension bushes, check for fork oil leaks, and test brake caliper operation for any binding. Tyre date codes should be examined to confirm they are not aged beyond safe service life, even if tread depth appears adequate. The absence of MOT advisories is encouraging, but it does not substitute for a hands-on assessment of a machine that has likely spent considerable time stationary.
