2004 Yamaha FZ6 Fazer 0.6L Petrol · NK04 NZM

The 2004 Yamaha FZ6 Fazer currently holds a clean roadworthiness status following the March 2025 MOT pass at 22,453 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every successful test returning a fault-free result. A single failure logged on 29 January 2024 at 21,668 miles shows no defects recorded against it, which points to an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault on the machine. The recorded mileage of 22,453 miles against a 22-year-old vehicle equates to roughly 1,021 miles per year, confirming exceptionally light use. The DVSA data shows the odometer moved from 15,445 miles in June 2021 to 20,479 miles in January 2023, then 21,668 miles in January 2024, and 22,453 miles by March 2025. The largest gap falls between the 2021 and 2023 entries, where the bike covered about 5,000 miles in nineteen months, after which annual use dropped below 1,000 miles. The history is sparse but clean, with no advisories or consumable wear flags at any stage. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection despite the unbroken pass record. Low mileage combined with long standing periods raises the risk of perished suspension bushes, hardened tyres, and internal corrosion in the exhaust or brake calipers that an MOT roller test may not expose at idle speeds. The January 2024 failure with zero defects recorded warrants a check of the test certificate and DVSA portal to confirm the reason, as a null-result fail can mask a documentation anomaly or a withdrawn test. Given the Fazer's age, examine the frame and swingarm pivot for structural rust, verify the brake discs for pitting from inactivity, and confirm the fork seals are not weeping. The previous owner clearly kept basic upkeep current enough to pass, but the minimal annual mileage means mechanical components have aged by time rather than wear, and rubber parts degrade regardless of distance covered.
