2017 Triumph Speed Triple 1.1L Petrol · VX67 DFE

This Triumph Speed Triple presents a clean bill of health across its entire MOT history. The most recent test, conducted on 9 June 2026 at 8,517 miles, passed with zero defects, advisories, or failures. That result is no anomaly. Every single recorded test since April 2022 has returned the same outcome: a clean pass with no defects whatsoever. The maintenance trend is unambiguously stable and reflects a machine that has been consistently kept within roadworthiness thresholds across five consecutive inspections. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of sparing use. Between the April 2022 test at 3,078 miles and the June 2026 test at 8,517 miles, the bike covered just 5,439 miles over roughly four years, averaging around 1,360 miles annually during that window. The earlier years were even quieter, with only 364 miles added between March 2023 and April 2024. This is a machine that has spent long periods stationary, which carries its own considerations. Extended sitting can lead to tyre flat-spotting, stale fuel, moisture ingress in brake fluid, and surface corrosion on exposed components like brake discs and exhaust headers, none of which the MOT necessarily captures. Despite the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should still conduct a hands-on inspection focused on areas the MOT does not deeply probe. Check the condition of the front and rear suspension bushes and swingarm bearings, as low-mileage bikes that sit unused can develop stiction or dry-out in these components rather than wear from use. Inspect the brake calipers closely. A bike this lightly ridden may suffer from binding calipers or glazed pads from lack of heat cycling. Examine the exhaust system for surface corrosion, particularly around welds and joints, as short trips and long stationary periods accelerate condensation-related rust. Verify tyre dates and condition; rubber degrades with age regardless of tread depth, and tyres from 2022 or earlier may need replacement even if the tread looks acceptable. The MOT data gives strong confidence that this Speed Triple has no recurring mechanical or structural faults. The complete absence of advisories across five tests spanning over four years is genuinely unusual and speaks to careful ownership. The real risk with a machine like this is not what the record reveals but what low annual mileage and long periods of inactivity can quietly cause. A thorough test ride covering varied speeds and braking conditions, combined with a close visual inspection of the items above, will confirm whether the clean paperwork translates to a clean machine.
