I have just created a forum for my site but when testing new registrations receive an error: “suspected bot”.

I’ve enabled “anyone can register” and I’ve also searched online but the only answer I can find is to disable Mojo Marketplace plugin. I currently don’t have this installed.

I’ve also tried disabling every plugin and trying again but receive the same error.

never seen that before, and like you all I can find on a google is reference to Mojo Marketplace

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

bbPress is using standard WordPress functions for user registration, so this is not strictly bbPress related. In most of the cases it’s because of a security plugin or something in your theme. So the above steps from @robin-w should help you troubleshoot.
