2005 KTM 950SM 0.9L Petrol · N99 GOS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 25 July 2025 at 16,533 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This reflects a flawless record across the last five tests, indicating that the motorcycle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the common mechanical failures or structural corrosion that typically trigger MOT advisories. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 21-year-old machine, averaging approximately 787 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap between May 2019 and April 2022, during which the vehicle covered only 1,948 miles over three years. Since 2022, usage has become more consistent, with roughly 700 to 800 miles annually. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, it also implies long periods stationary which can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components regardless of the distance travelled. Despite the clean digital record, a buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection of components susceptible to age-related decay. The inspector should check for perished or cracked brake hoses, fuel lines, and fork seals, as low-use vehicles often suffer from material drying out. Examine the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking, as the tread depth may be sufficient despite the rubber being brittle. Additionally, verify the frame for signs of hidden corrosion and ensure the suspension bushings have not seized due to the long intervals between use.
