2008 Suzuki GSF 1250 SA K8 1.3L Petrol · ND08 PNJ

The MOT record for this 2008 Suzuki GSF 1250 SA K8 presents a clean and stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 May 2026 at 27,101 miles passed with zero defects. This is a strong indicator of current roadworthiness. The trend across the last five consecutive annual tests, stretching back to 2021, is consistently stable with no advisories or failures recorded. This pattern suggests a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets the minimum safety requirements, with no evidence of developing mechanical or structural faults. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an eighteen-year-old motorcycle. The recorded 27,101 miles equates to an average of roughly 1,506 miles per year. The annual increments between tests are modest and relatively consistent, showing 936 miles between October 2024 and May 2026, 759 miles between October 2023 and October 2024, and 1,442 miles between October 2022 and October 2023. This pattern points to light, regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is beneficial for preventing issues like stale fuel system corrosion or seized components from disuse. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must conduct a thorough in-person inspection. The complete absence of any advisories over five years is unusual and could indicate a very diligent owner, but it also warrants scrutiny. A buyer should verify the condition of consumable components that may not have triggered a failure but are due for replacement given the mileage and age. This includes a close inspection of the tyre date codes and tread depth, brake pad thickness and disc condition, and the condition of all suspension bushes and seals for perishing from age rather than mileage. The structural integrity of the frame, swingarm, and forks must be physically checked for corrosion, particularly around welds and drainage points, as surface corrosion can develop on a lightly used machine that is not ridden hard enough to burn off moisture. The final drive chain and sprockets should be examined for wear and correct adjustment, as a neglected chain on a low-mileage bike can still stretch and damage sprockets. The clean MOT record is a positive foundation, but it is not a substitute for a hands-on mechanical inspection to confirm the vehicle's true condition.
