2015 Yamaha YZF R1 1.0L Petrol · AD15 ADZ

The vehicle presents a stable and positive maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 29 May 2026 at 15,624 miles showing a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows two consecutive years of defect-free testing in 2025 and 2024. The absence of advisories or failures in the latest three annual inspections suggests the motorcycle is currently in a well-maintained state regarding its primary mechanical components. The mileage profile indicates very light usage for an 11-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,420 miles per year. A significant gap in testing history exists between the August 2021 test at 8,758 miles and the May 2024 test at 14,197 miles. While the low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, the jump of over 5,000 miles during that three-year period represents the most intensive usage period in the vehicle's recorded history. The 2021 test highlighted several consumable wear items, specifically a rear tyre near the legal limit, a loose drive chain, and front brake pads approaching the minimum threshold. While these issues appear to have been addressed given the subsequent clean passes, a buyer should physically inspect the drive chain and sprockets for tension and wear. Given the low annual mileage, it is also prudent to check for any signs of degradation in rubber components, such as tyre sidewalls or fork seals, which can perish from age and inactivity despite low tread wear. The 2020 report noted a noisy rear exhaust, which may indicate a loose mounting or a minor leak. Although the recent records show no such issues, verifying the exhaust system integrity and ensuring there is no excessive vibration or noise during operation remains a sensible precaution. Overall, the mechanical history shows a transition from minor consumable maintenance in 2021 to a period of consistent, defect-free operation.
