2008 Yamaha FZ6 0.6L Petrol · SK58 APU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 24 April 2025 at 12,730 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the bike has consistently passed its tests without any recorded advisories or mechanical failures over the available history. The mileage is exceptionally low for an 18 year old motorcycle, averaging roughly 707 miles per year. A significant gap in testing exists between May 2017 and April 2025. During this eight year interval, the odometer only increased by 266 miles, rising from 12,464 to 12,730 miles. This indicates the vehicle spent the vast majority of the last decade in long term storage rather than in active use. While the clean MOT record is positive, the prolonged periods of inactivity present specific risks. A buyer must inspect the fuel system for varnish or degradation and check the health of the battery. The tyres and brake pads may be within legal limits but could have hardened or developed flat spots due to age and lack of use. Special attention should be paid to the fork seals and brake calipers. Seals often perish and leak when a bike stands for years, and calipers can seize or suffer from internal corrosion. Check for any signs of surface corrosion on the frame and swingarm, as stagnant vehicles in damp environments are prone to structural oxidation despite low mileage.
