2008 KTM Super Duke 990 1.0L Petrol · OU08 AGZ

The 2008 KTM Super Duke 990 demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its MOT history, with no defects recorded in its last three tests. The most recent 2024-05-01 assessment at 25,405 miles confirmed compliance, and prior tests from 2023 to 2019 showed consistent passing results. No recurring mechanical or structural issues were flagged, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements. However, the absence of recorded defects does not preclude hidden wear, particularly given the low mileage and extended intervals between tests. The bike’s mileage of 25,405 miles over 18 years equates to an average of 1,411 miles annually, significantly below typical usage for its age. Notable gaps in MOT records include a 22-month interval between the 2020-03-07 test (23,760 miles) and the next in 2021-06-01 (24,421 miles), during which mileage increased by 661 miles. Subsequent tests show gradual accumulation, with 700 miles added between 2021 and 2023. This pattern suggests periods of inactivity, which may affect components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs through lack of use. A buyer should inspect the bike’s suspension for stiffness or uneven wear, as prolonged storage can degrade elastomeric components. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or binding, while the exhaust system’s integrity is critical given the age. Low mileage does not guarantee mechanical health, and the lack of recent MOT data beyond 2024 raises questions about ongoing maintenance. Confirming service history and testing the bike’s operation in person remains essential to verify its current condition.
