2007 Suzuki Bandit 1.3L Petrol · SP57 OPW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in October 2025 at 68,911 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This suggests the current owner is proactive regarding maintenance, ensuring the motorcycle remains compliant with road safety standards. The mileage history is exceptionally low for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-intensity usage, with only 466 miles recorded between the 2024 and 2025 tests and 884 miles covered in the year prior to that. While this low mileage generally reduces wear and tear on the drivetrain and engine, such infrequent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or fluid breakdown during long periods of inactivity. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension system, as the 2022 test at 67,195 miles flagged a misting nearside front shock absorber and a worn bush on the rear lower shock. Although these did not result in a failure, they indicate the beginning of component fatigue. It is essential to verify that no new oil leaks have developed and that the bushes show no signs of tearing or cracking. Given the age of the Suzuki, a thorough check of the frame for structural corrosion is also necessary, as low-mileage vehicles are not immune to surface rust caused by time and storage.
