2017 KTM 390 Duke 17 0.4L Petrol · NV67 CVP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following its most recent MOT test on May 7 2024. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a specific mechanical failure recorded during that same session. While the tester initially flagged the rear brake as excessively binding at 2,008 miles, the issue was rectified to allow a clean pass with no further defects. No recurring faults or advisories have appeared across the documented testing history. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, recording only 2,008 miles in total. This averages out to approximately 223 miles per year, indicating significant periods. Between the June 2021 test at 1,726 miles and the May 2022 test at 1,801 miles, the vehicle covered only 75 miles in a year. While low mileage reduces wear on drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components, tyre flat spots, and fluid breakdown. A buyer must physically inspect the rear braking system to ensure the binding issue noted in May 2024 was fully resolved and is not indicative of a seized caliper or perished seals. Given the low mileage, close attention should be paid to the condition of the fork seals and suspension bushings, which can perish due to age rather than use. Verify the chain and sprocket for surface rust or seizing, as these often occur on vehicles that remain stationary for extended durations.
