2020 Suzuki Gsxr 125 AL8 0.1L Petrol · PX20 LDL

A pattern of clean roadworthiness has been interrupted by a critical safety failure concerning tyre condition, though the vehicle returned to a defect-free status during its last inspection on 2025-10-09. The failure recorded on 2025-03-11 was classified as dangerous due to front tyre tread depth falling below 1.0mm, accompanied by an advisory for a perished rear tyre. This indicates a period where essential consumables were allowed to degrade to unsafe levels before being rectified. The recorded mileage of 8,795 miles is low for a six-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,466 miles per year. Such low annual accumulation often suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. Mechanically, this usage profile shifts the primary concern away from drivetrain wear and toward the degradation of rubber components and fluids, as evidenced by the previous MOT failure for perished tyres. Given the history of perished tyres and dangerously low tread, a physical inspection of the current rubber is essential. Check the sidewalls for hairline cracks or crazing and ensure the current tyres are not showing signs of age-related hardening. During a test ride, pay close attention to the stability of the bike under braking and cornering to ensure the current tyres provide adequate grip and that no uneven wear patterns are present. While the records show no failures regarding the braking system or suspension, the buyer should verify the smooth operation of the brake levers and pedals to ensure there is no binding or sponginess. Listen for any unusual knocks or rattles from the fork seals or rear shock during low-speed manoeuvres and over bumps, as low-usage vehicles can sometimes develop seal leaks or stiction.
