2008 YAMAHA V-MAX1.2L Petrol

The 2008 Yamaha V‑Max holds a passed MOT as of 28 July 2022 at 57,525 miles, confirming that it satisfied the required safety and emissions criteria at that inspection. With no recorded defects, the maintenance trend appears stable; there is no evidence of worsening or recurring issues in the available record. Across an 18‑year lifespan the machine has logged just 57,525 miles, averaging roughly 3,200 miles per year. That figure is markedly low for a scooter of this vintage, suggesting either light daily use or extended periods of inactivity. The single MOT entry provides no indication of rapid mileage spikes or unexplained gaps, reinforcing the impression of consistent, modest utilisation. A prospective buyer should focus the in‑person assessment on components that experience wear despite low mileage. Examine the drive chain and sprockets for tension and lubrication, verify tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, and feel the rear brake pads and discs for wear or glazing. Check suspension bushings and coil springs for any looseness or corrosion, and inspect the frame and exhaust for rust or structural compromise that can develop during long storage intervals. Confirm that the battery holds charge and that fuel lines are free of degradation, as these are common concerns for vehicles with prolonged idle periods.
