What is the SUZUKI DL650 MOT pass rate?

In the 2023–24 DVSA MOT file this nameplate passed 90.7% of 934 tests (845 passes, 87 fails). That is a test-outcome rate, not a prediction for any one car.

Is a high MOT pass rate the same as reliability?

No. MOT tests a defined set of roadworthiness items at a point in time. They do not measure durability, crashworthiness, or US complaint volume. Sparse models (under 500 tests) are not published.

Are these UK or US figures?

UK. The rest of ModelYearFacts is US NHTSA and EPA evidence. This hub is Great Britain MOT statistics on the same nameplate, published under the Open Government Licence.
