2016 Yamaha MT - 09 ABS 0.8L Petrol · MK16 HFL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 7 May 2025 at 14,445 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the motorcycle met all legal safety and emissions standards at the time of testing. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old machine, averaging roughly 1,444 miles per year. A significant gap exists in the records between the April 2021 test at 11,556 miles and the May 2025 test. During this four year interval, the odometer increased by only 2,889 miles. Such low usage suggests the bike has spent prolonged periods stationary. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. The long periods of inactivity increase the risk of perished tyres, seized brake calipers, and degraded fork oil. Check for corrosion on the chain and sprockets, as low-mileage bikes often suffer from lack of regular lubrication. Verify the condition of the battery and fuel system to ensure no gumming has occurred from sitting. While the MOT history is clean, the lack of recorded defects over several years does not replace the need for a service history check to confirm oil changes and valve clearances have been maintained.
