2008 Kawasaki ZRX1200R 1.2L Petrol · PY08 FWR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a positive maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent inspection conducted in August 2024 at 11,203 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the mechanical issues previously noted have been addressed or have resolved. This clean sheet suggests the bike has been maintained to a standard that meets the minimum safety requirements for road use despite its age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 622 miles per year. Between June 2021 and 2024, the vehicle covered only 202 miles, moving from 11,001 to 11,203 miles. This minimal usage often implies long periods of storage. While this reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber seals, fluid breakdown, and dry rot. A buyer must perform a physical inspection of the braking system, specifically focusing on the May 2020 test at 10,723 miles where the tester flagged fluctuations in brake effort on both the nearside and offside front brakes. Although subsequent tests show no faults, the buyer should check for seized calipers, perished brake lines, or contaminated fluid. Given the low mileage, an inspection of the fork seals for leaks and the tyres for sidew cracking is vital, as these components often suffer when a vehicle sits stationary for extended periods.
