2017 Yamaha FJR 1.3L Petrol · CV17 NXP

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in April 2026 at 26,616 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a trend of mechanical stability over the last five years. This consistency suggests a proactive maintenance regime where the owner has addressed potential issues before they could result in test failures or even minor advisories. The usage pattern is notably low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,957 miles per year. Between April 2022 and March 2023, the vehicle covered only 1,915 miles, indicating significant periods of stationary or minimal use. However, the mileage increased more steadily between 2023 and 2026, covering nearly 2,000 miles in annual intervals. While the low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of age-related rubber degradation and fluid-related issues. Since the MOT record shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage storage. Inspect the fork seals for weeping and check the brake lines for perish cracking, as rubber components dry out over time regardless of distance traveled. Verify the tyre age and condition for flat spotting or hardening, as low-use bikes often retain tyres that expire before the tread depth reaches legal limits.
