Our Verdict
A solid purchase option for those seekin
When inspecting this black DL 1000 K6, pay close attention to the tyres. The MOT history shows a failure in November 2024 due to low tread on the offside front tyre, so you should check the current depth and age of all four tyres to ensure they aren't nearing the legal limit again.
Given the vehicle's age, ask the seller for any evidence of chain and sprocket maintenance, as well as brake fluid changes. While the MOT records show no mechanical defects in the most recent tests, a physical inspection of the drive chain and any potential fluid leaks around the 996cc engine is recommended.
As a 996cc petrol motorcycle, running costs will be higher than a commuter bike. Fuel economy will depend heavily on riding style and load, but you should budget for premium unleaded fuel.
Insurance groups for large-capacity Suzuki tourers tend to be mid-to-high, so obtain a quote using the PE57VVP registration before committing. Maintenance costs will include periodic tyre replacements, chain lubrication, and oil changes. An estimated annual running cost of £700-£1,100 is reasonable, covering fuel, insurance, and routine servicing.
Focus your inspection on the tyres and wheels. The 2024 MOT failure specifically highlighted an offside front tyre with tread below 1.0mm, so verify that the current set is well within legal limits and shows no signs of uneven wear which could indicate alignment issues.
Additionally, check the condition of the braking system. While no brake-related failures appear in the MOT history, the age of the bike means components like calipers and discs should be checked for corrosion or excessive wear. Finally, inspect the overall condition of the black fairings and components to ensure no damage has occurred that wasn't captured by the MOT testing process.
This 2007 Suzuki DL 1000 K6 presents with 30,351 miles on the clock, which is relatively low for a 19-year-old motorcycle. The MOT history shows five recorded tests since 2023, with only one failure related to a tyre tread depth in November 2024. The most recent test in October 2025 passed with no defects recorded.
No aggregate reliability data is available for the Suzuki DL 1000 K6 to provide a comparative statistical overview.
