2017 Triumph Thunderbird 1.7L Petrol · OE66 FCD

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 22 April 2026 at 6,150 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This stability across the last five years indicates a well-maintained machine where mechanical components and structural integrity have not shown signs of neglect or recurring failure under regulatory scrutiny. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 683 miles per year. Between May 2022 at 2,966 miles and April 2026 at 6,150 miles, the bike covered only 3,184 miles over four years. While this low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between tests indicate the vehicle likely sits for extended periods. The consistent passes despite these gaps suggest the owner has maintained proactive upkeep rather than the mechanical degradation typically associated with high-mileage commuting. Despite the lack of recorded MOT faults, a physical inspection must address the risks associated with low-mile storage. You should inspect the tyres for flat spotting, cracking, and rubber degradation, which occurs regardless of tread depth when a vehicle remains stationary. Check the brake fluid for moisture contamination and inspect the brake discs for pitting, as infrequent use can lead to surface corrosion. Additionally, verify the suspension seals for perished rubber and the fuel system to ensure the low mileage has not masked internal storage-related issues.
