1988 YAMAHA 0.1L PETROL

The most recent MOT, dated 25 November 2015, was a clean pass with no defects recorded at 7,340 miles. This is the only MOT entry supplied, so there is no evidence of recurring problems or a pattern of failures. With a recorded mileage of just 7,340 miles after 38 years, the vehicle averages roughly 190 miles per year – far below typical usage. Such low mileage can mean the bike has been lightly used, which may have reduced wear on consumables such as brakes, tyres, clutch and suspension components. Conversely, long periods of inactivity can lead to issues like dried seals, corrosion, or fuel system degradation. Because the mileage signal is ambiguous, it is not possible to state definitively whether the bike has suffered hard use or simply sat idle for long stretches. Given the single clean MOT and the very low mileage, the overall condition trend appears stable rather than worsening. However, the lack of recent testing (the last MOT is over ten years old) means the current state of the bike is unknown and could have changed significantly since 2015. Key checks for a buyer: - Inspect the engine, fuel system and electrical wiring for signs of corrosion, leaks or dried seals. - Examine the brakes, tyres and suspension for wear, rust or cracked bushings that may have developed during idle periods.
