The vehicle currently presents an unroadworthy status following a worsening trend in mechanical defects. While it passed in May 2024, the most recent test in May 2025 resulted in a failed inspection due to a serious fluid leak from the nearside front shock absorber. This failure follows a series of significant defects noted just in the previous year, indicating that despite the low mileage, the vehicle is suffering from component degradation or neglect during storage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 414 miles per year. Between the May 2024 test at 1,652 miles and the May 2025 test at 2,899 miles, the bike covered only 1,247 miles. This low usage suggests long periods of inactivity, which often leads to the drying of rubber seals, seized calipers, and hydraulic components, as evidenced by the recent shock failure and previous binding issues. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front end geometry and steering assembly. The 2024 failure record flagged a deformed offside handlebar and fouling against the fuel tank at full lock, suggesting a previous impact that may have compromised the structural integrity of the triple tree or mounting points. Furthermore, the front brake system requires a check for consistent piston movement, as the tester previously identified binding brakes which are common in low-use vehicles that sit for extended periods.
