2015 Yamaha YZF 0.1L Petrol · AF65 ADX

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with no defects recorded in its most recent 2025 MOT at 16,273 miles. The last four MOTs, spanning from 2018 to 2025, also showed no failures, indicating consistent maintenance. However, the extended intervals between tests—particularly the 4.2-year gap between the 2019 and 2023 MOTs—raise questions about the frequency of inspections. While the absence of recorded issues is positive, the low mileage of 16,273 over 11 years suggests infrequent use or prolonged inactivity, which could affect components like seals, belts, and suspension bushings. The mileage progression reveals a sharp increase from 4,598 miles in March 2018 to 7,662 miles in October 2019, followed by a slower accumulation to 16,204 miles by December 2023. This pattern implies intermittent operation, with potential risks of dry rot in rubber components or corrosion in the exhaust system. The vehicle’s age and low annual average of 1,479 miles further highlight the need for a thorough inspection of the drivetrain, as prolonged inactivity can lead to stiffness in mechanisms like the clutch and gear linkage. A buyer should prioritise checking the suspension for hardened bushes and coil springs, as these can degrade without regular use. The brake system, including calipers and discs, should be assessed for binding or corrosion, particularly if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Structural integrity is likely sound given the clean MOT history, but the absence of recent emissions testing (the last was in 2025) means the exhaust system’s condition remains unverified. Overall, while the records suggest responsible ownership, physical inspection is critical to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical state.
