What Kawasaki Zr 1000 Daf failures look like

1,888 Kawasaki Zr 1000 Daf tests on record carry the manual reference DVSA attaches to each defect. The most frequent problems were with nuisance (emissions and noise) on 223 tests (11.8%), with lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment on 180 tests (9.5%) and with axles, wheels, tyres and suspension on 167 tests (8.8%). A test can fail on more than one thing, and an MOT can be failed on one defect while another is only advised, so these counts do not add up to the number of tests.
