2013 Yamaha RD250 0.2L Petrol · JKM 821Y

The vehicle demonstrates an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass on 27 September 2025 at 27,299 miles. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories across the last five consecutive annual inspections indicates a well-maintained machine that has avoided the common mechanical degradation often seen in older motorcycles. This consistent performance suggests that the owner has prioritised preventative upkeep, ensuring the machine remains fully compliant with current safety standards. The recorded mileage of 27,299 miles over a thirteen-year lifespan reflects a pattern of light, intermittent usage, averaging roughly 2,100 miles per annum. Notably, the odometer has remained almost static between September 2021 and September 2025, with only six miles added during that four-year window. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and internal engine components, long periods of inactivity often lead to fuel system varnish, perished rubber seals, and potential corrosion within the fuel tank or braking lines. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from lack of use rather than high-mileage fatigue. Verify the condition of the brake fluid and check for any signs of seizing in the calipers or master cylinders, as these often deteriorate when a motorcycle sits idle for extended periods. Inspect the tyres for age-related sidewall cracking and examine the fuel tank interior for signs of oxidation. Given the clean MOT history, the mechanical integrity appears high, but a thorough check of the electrical connectors and rubber hoses remains essential to ensure the bike is ready for regular operation.
