2008 Suzuki GSXR1000 1.0L Petrol · WN58 DZK

The vehicle maintains a stable level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 15 October 2025 at 20,523 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This streak of clean results dating back to 2021 indicates that the motorcycle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum safety requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation issues. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eighteen-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,140 miles per year. Between September 2021 and October 2025, the vehicle covered only 899 miles, moving from 19,624 miles to 20,523 miles. This minimal usage suggests the bike was likely kept in dry storage and used only for fair weather or short periods between tests. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of standing can lead to the deterioration of rubber-based components through age rather than distance. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must perform a physical inspection focusing on components affected by low-mileage storage. Check for cracking or perish on tyres and brake hoses, as these may have hardened despite having deep tread. Inspect the fork seals for signs of weeping and examine the brake discs for surface corrosion which often occurs when a vehicle sits for months. Since the MOT does not assess fluid quality or internal health, verify the age of the brake fluid and coolant to ensure they have not absorbed moisture over the long intervals between use.
