2009 Kawasaki ZR750 0.7L Petrol · PJ09 EFB

The 2009 Kawasaki ZR750 presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 2 July 2025 at 12,524 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of certificates since at least 2020. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults, advisories, or repeated mechanical concerns across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 12,524 miles over roughly seventeen years, an average of about 737 miles per year. The DVSA entries show light and consistent use: 9,410 miles on 4 February 2020, 9,430 on 31 March 2021, 10,392 on 25 November 2022, 11,976 on 27 November 2023, and 12,524 on 2 July 2025. A gap of around nineteen months separates the 2023 and 2025 tests, but the added 548 miles confirms the machine was simply stored or lightly ridden rather than neglected through hard use. No rapid accumulation or missing-year failures appear in the data. The absence of recorded advisories means the tester raised no concerns on suspension bushes, brake discs, calipers, steering head bearings, or structural corrosion at any stage. A clean sheet across five tests implies the previous keeper kept basic consumables within limits and avoided crash damage or standing-water rust. Low annual mileage does, however, carry hidden risks that paper records cannot show. A buyer should still inspect the bike in person for perishing fork seals, cracked tyres from age rather than wear, and pitting on brake discs caused by long idle periods. Check the chain and sprockets for tight spots or rust, and confirm the exhaust emissions remain clean on a warm engine. The MOT history supports a sound purchase, but physical inspection remains essential on a seventeen-year-old low-mileage machine.
