I'm looking at buying a bike .there is one, its got really low miles, 6750 ish & its a 2013 bike. The part that bothers me is ts had 3 owners in that time. Sunny day riders no problem but all 3 owners would fit into this category. I have looked up the Mot History & the 1st year is missing from the records online , but the other 2 mot's corroborate the miles...from 5000+ miles in 2015 ?

Mines done 1750-2000. Two previous owners. 14-reg bike. Picked it up with 1200 on the clock-ish.

Buy on quality. Or it's been clocked.

I thought it was an H2R and was going to say the mileage is due to it not being road legal.

Equally three owners nothing to be worried about with one of those as its a handful and could frighten people off.

It must be early 2013 to have required 3 mot's already. Not unusual to have had multiple owners and low mileage. Bikes don't normally have clocking issues these days as speedometer are no longer cable driven. Does it look good is it good calue do you like it then just buy it
