2012 Triumph Street Triple 0.7L Petrol · SB12 EZP

The 2012 Triumph Street Triple presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 8 August 2025 at 21,228 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, and the prior four annual tests also returned passes with no advisories logged. This consistent clean sheet indicates the machine has been kept to a standard that satisfies DVSA roadworthiness checks without recurring mechanical or structural concerns. The odometer climbed from 19,536 miles at the 16 September 2022 test to 21,228 miles by the 4 August 2025 failure and subsequent 8 August pass, averaging roughly 1,500 miles per year across its life. A gap between the 15 September 2023 and 17 August 2024 tests covers near-standard twelve-month spacing, with only 478 miles added in that window. Such low accumulation relative to the fourteen-year age points to light use or extended standing periods rather than hard riding or neglected high-mileage wear. The 4 August 2025 failure at 21,228 miles carries no recorded defects, suggesting an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, with the retest four days later confirming a pass. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, calipers, steering head bearings, chain and sprocket wear, or structural corrosion appear in any entry from 2022 to 2025. The absence of flagged items reflects a history free of escalating faults. A buyer should still inspect the bike in person for age-related degradation not captured by MOT checks. Standing time implied by low mileage can stiffen suspension seals, flat-spot tyres, and promote surface corrosion on frame and exhaust components. Verify chain tension and lubrication, test the front and rear brake feel for binding or spongy calipers, and examine the subframe and swingarm pivot for hidden rust before purchase.
