2010 Triumph Street Triple 0.7L Petrol · VE10 ABO

The vehicle remains roadworthy as of the 17 April 2026 MOT, where it passed at 11,485 miles but the tester recorded a slightly loose drive chain (6.1.7 (c) (i)). Earlier examinations show a pattern of isolated, minor advisories rather than recurring major defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend with no evident deterioration of core components. Mileage averages roughly 718 miles per year, an unusually low figure for a 2010 model. The record jumps from 4,652 miles in June 2013 to 4,944 miles in October 2019, suggesting either prolonged periods of inactivity or unrecorded testing during those years. Apart from the six‑year gap, the MOT entries are consistently spaced at twelve‑month intervals, and the mileage increments between tests are modest, reinforcing the impression of light usage and limited wear. A prospective buyer should verify the drive chain tension, ensuring it meets the specification and is neither overly tight nor slack. The front direction indicators, flagged as insecure in June 2024, merit a functional check and secure mounting. Tyre tread should be inspected, as advisories appeared in 2019, 2021 and 2024, to confirm sufficient depth and even wear. The noisy exhaust noted in October 2021 warrants a brief examination for possible leaks or mounting issues. The missing screen bolt recorded in 2013 should be confirmed as rectified. Finally, a visual survey of suspension bushes, brake discs, and any signs of corrosion will corroborate the vehicle’s overall structural integrity before purchase.
