1987 YAMAHA FZ750 PURE SPORTS0.7L Petrol

The 1987 Yamaha FZ750 Pure Sports presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 20 May 2025 at 20,639 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the clean outcomes of the two prior tests in November 2022 and September 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the three-entry history, so the documented condition shows no worsening or recurring fault pattern. The odometer climbed only 225 miles between September 2021 (20,400 miles) and November 2022 (20,414 miles), then 225 miles again to the 2025 reading. Over roughly 39 years this machine has averaged about 529 miles per year, confirming extremely light use. A 30-month gap separates the 2022 and 2025 tests, yet mileage rose just 225 in that window, indicating long stationary periods rather than active neglect. A clean MOT sheet does not guarantee freedom from age-related decay on a bike this old. Standing storage invites perished suspension bushes, hardened fork seals, and internal corrosion in the fuel system or exhaust. The buyer should physically inspect the frame and swinging-arm mounts for structural rust, check brake calipers for binding after idle, and verify tyre sidewall condition given the original-fitment age risk. Confirm the chain and sprocket wear, plus electrical integrity on the charging system, since low mileage and damp storage accelerate insulation rot more than road use would. The recorded history supports careful ownership, but a 39-year-old sports machine demands hands-on checks the MOT never captured.
