2013 KTM 250 0.3L Petrol · YS63 BWA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a period of significant neglect followed by reactive repairs. While it passed its latest test on 18 October 2024, this followed a comprehensive failure just eight days prior. The October 2024 failure identified multiple critical defects across the wheel bearings, front shock absorbers, and drivetrain components. The transition from a serious fluid leak on the front shocks to a passed status with minor rear leaking suggests the suspension system is nearing the end of its functional life. Mileage data is insufficient to establish a clear usage pattern or calculate the rate of wear. The record shows a significant gap between the July 2020 test and the October 2021 test, where the mileage was recorded as zero miles. This suggests the bike was either in storage for an extended period or the odometer was not recorded correctly during that inspection. Without mileage-based intervals, it is impossible to determine if the mechanical wear is consistent with the vehicle's thirteen-year age. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and drive assembly. The October 2024 failure flagged excessive play in both front wheel bearings and serious leaks in both front shock absorbers, indicating these components were replaced or repaired recently; you should verify the quality of these repairs by checking for any remaining movement in the wheel assemblies. Additionally, the drive chain and sprocket were noted as worn and loose in 2024; ensure the current chain tension is correct and the sprocket teeth show no signs of hooking. Given the 2020 advisory regarding worn brake discs and pads, the current state of the braking system should be measured to ensure they have not degraded again since the last service.
