As pointed out by @TheShipwright , the registration does pass the ULEZ.
Don't ask me why or how but it does - SF04HZA.
It didn't before when I had a private plate on the bike but hey, print a copy and challenge TfL if needed...

OT Motorbike - 2004 Suzuki Bandit GSF600 / 600cc Silver / 26,000 miles / Full Service History / HPI Clear

Hi all,
I am selling my Suzuki Bandit GSF600SK4, about 26,000 miles on the clocks, full service history. First registered 22/03/2004.
The bike is currently MOT'd, taxed and insured. The bike is HPI clear - just the change of private plates shows on it. The bike has been used in London and been kept outside so the condition is below average - tatty would be an accurate description.
Owned by myself for the last past 11 years and only selling because of the new central London ULEZ emission zone requirements (which it did not meet...but somehow now it does...). It works well, I never had any issues with it and it has always started and ran well in my ownership.
It has an alarm and is datatagged. Road tax = £66 per year / Insurance is £150 with JMI
It was quite high mileage when I bought it in 2008 but it is now quite low mileage for the year since I only use it a couple of times a month.
The previous owner added the twin headlights and a complete Bandit 1200 rear end, which both suit the bike. I have also added bits to the bike as I went such as braided brake lines, uprated calipers, full exhaust, rear Hagon shock, adjustable CNC levers, etc... I think some people call it "streetfighter" or "modified".
This is a London bike which has been kept outdoors all it life so do not expect a garage queen or a show bike, this is not it. Although it has never been crashed or been involved in an accident, it has been "pushed over" twice in my ownership - this is what careless drivers do in London, reverse into your bike and do not have the courtesy to pick it up...
The bike has also been stolen once in June 2017 when I was visiting a friend in East London, a group of youths snapped the steering lock and cut all the wiring loom to attempt to start it. It was found the next day, they cut too many wires to hot wire it! I had to get the steering lock fixed and the wiring redone by FWR in London and they did a great job.
MOT - currently valid until 3 June 2020.
Past mileage record: 2007 = 12,267 miles // 2008 = 15,252 miles // 2009 = 17,546 miles // 2010 = 18,388 miles // 2011 = 19,245 miles // 2013 = 20,012 miles // 2014 = 21,284 miles // 2015 = 23,661 miles // 2016 = 24,832 miles // 2017 = 24,942 miles // 2018 = 25,125 miles // 2019 = 25,867 miles

Looking at the last 5 years alone, I have spent £1,705.27 on the bike and ridden it around 4,000 miles. So all in, it has been well cared for.
In terms of parts added, there is a full Bandit 1200 exhaust and upgraded suspensions (Hagon rear shock and Ohlins fork springs) so it rides well.
Not sure what else to say! All consumables are in good order, no advisories on the MOT.
I am after £X+ I have spent on the MOT/Oil change and the rear tyre valve)
I will post better photos at the weekend when I have washed it properly.
Test rides are welcome from New Cross!
Cheers
Vince
