2008 Suzuki GSXR1000 1.0L Petrol · YN08 KYR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 30 May 2026 at 9,587 miles. While the motorcycle demonstrates consistent passing, the maintenance trend shows a persistent and unresolved mechanical issue. Specifically, the exhaust has been flagged as noisy in every single test over the last five years, indicating a chronic defect that has not been rectified. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 533 miles per year. There is a significant gap in testing and usage noted between the 18-month period between November 2022 and May 2024, during which the vehicle covered only 17 miles. This low-frequency-of-use suggests the bike may have spent long periods stationary, which can often lead to the degradation of rubber components, fuel systems, and fluid-related seals despite the low overalljor reading. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the exhaust system, as it has been a recurring failure point since 2021. The 2025 test also highlighted a front brake cylinder with travel close to excessive limits, suggesting potential master cylinder wear or seal failure that requires immediate attention. Furthermore, the drive chain was noted as worn in 2024, and the distorted rear wheel bead rim from 2021 should be inspected to ensure there is no structural fatigue or leaks. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for flat spots on tyres, perished hoses, and seized suspension components.
