YAMAHA RD1251984 · 0.1L PETROL

The roadworthiness status of this vehicle is unverified due to a complete lack of MOT data for the past eleven years. The last recorded test in April 2015 at 12,326 miles resulted in a clean pass with no recorded advisories. Because no tests have been performed since that date, there is no evidence to confirm the current structural integrity, braking efficiency, or mechanical safety of the motorcycle. The maintenance trend has effectively stalled, rendering the historical data obsolete. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 42-year-old machine, averaging fewer than 300 miles per year. Between January 2012 at 11,400 miles and April 2015 at 12,326 miles, the vehicle covered only 926 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary storage. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components such as fuel lines, perished seals, and aged tyres which are not captured by mileage figures. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on components that suffer from long-term standing. The previous 2014 failure for incorrect wheel alignment and the 2012 headlamp aim failure indicate minor adjustments were required in the past, but the current priority is checking for corrosion on the frame, seized fork sliders, and perished brake calipers. Given the decade-long gap, the brake fluid is likely hygroscopic and the tyres may be internally cracking or losing elasticity, regardless of their remaining tread depth.
