1995 Yamaha Diversion 0.6L Petrol · N108 CSN

The vehicle maintains a high level of roadworthiness, showing a stable maintenance trend in recent years. The most recent test conducted in June 2025 at 34,178 miles resulted in no defects recorded, following a period of clean passes seen in 2024 and 2022. While a minor fault regarding a worn tyre appeared in 2023, the subsequent results indicate that basic mechanical requirements are being met proactively. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 31-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,100 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between May 2018 and May 2022, where the bike covered only 194 miles over four years. This period of inactivity suggests the vehicle likely sat for long durations, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluids despite the low mechanical wear. However, the usage since 2022 has increased, with over 2,400 miles covered in the last three years. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking and suspension systems given the historical data. The 2009 failure for a low front brake master cylinder fluid level and a fouled rear brake hose indicates a vulnerability in hydraulic integrity that could resurface. Additionally, the 2008 report of a misting offside front shock absorber should be re-checked to ensure the seal has not developed a significant leak during the periods of low use and potential storage. The condition of the tyres and drive chain also warrants attention as the record shows recurring issues with reaching legal limits. The low mileage necessitates checking for dry rot in the sidewalls and seizing in the chain links. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion failures, the age of the vehicle still requires a close look at frame rust around mounting points, which are not always fully detailed in a standard MOT test.
