2017 Yamaha WR 0.5L Petrol · WK17 AWX

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status based on the most recent MOT record. The test conducted on 19 April 2023 at 427 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable mechanical condition at the time of testing, though the lack of historical data prevents a comprehensive analysis of long-term maintenance trends or recurring faults. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 47 miles per year. The 427 miles recorded during the 2023 test suggests the bike has spent long periods in storage rather than undergoing regular use. While this minimizes wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and brake surfaces, the significant gap between the 2023 test and the current date means the vehicle may be subject to age degradation rather than mechanical fatigue. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection to address risks associated with long-term sitting. Static storage often leads to flat spots on tyres, seized brake calipers, and perished rubber hoses that an MOT may not fully detect. Inspect the fuel system for corrosion and check the fork seals for signs of leaking which can occur from lack of movement. Given the low mileage, the structural integrity of the frame and the condition of the suspension should be verified to ensure components have not become brittle over time.
