2019 Triumph Tiger 1.2L Petrol · LG19 BCC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but exhibits a persistent trend of deferred maintenance regarding steering and safety consumables. While it passed its most recent test in October 2025 at 17,261 miles, it failed just one day prior due to a critical front tyre and the recurring steering headbearing defect. The steering headbearing has been flagged in every annual inspection since 2022, indicating a mechanical wear issue that has not been adequately rectified despite multiple MOT intervals. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,466 miles per year. This low usage suggests the bike has seen minimal road stress, but the data also reveals age-related degradation of certain components. Between the September 2024 test at 14,136 miles and the 2025 test at 17,261 miles, the vehicle covered only 3,125 miles, yet the front tyre reached the legal limit likely due to age-related rot rather than tread wear. A buyer must physically inspect the steering assembly to assess the severity of the notchiness reported in the headbearing, as this often requires a complete teardown to replace bearings and ensure smooth rotation. The rear brake system also warrants attention; records show fluctuating brake effort in 2022 and pads reaching the minimum limit in 2023. Given the low mileage, the buyer should check for corrosion on the brake discs and seized calipers, which are common issues for vehicles that sit for long periods.
