2013 Yamaha YBR 125 0.1L Petrol · CX13 OCF

The Yamaha YBR 125 passed its most recent MOT on 28 July 2023 at 11,622 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a currently roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable, with the only blemish being a failed test nine days earlier on 19 July 2023 at the same mileage, though the DVSA record lists no specific defects for that failure. This pattern suggests the machine was presented for test prematurely or with a clerical issue rather than a substantive mechanical fault. The mileage history shows strikingly low use for a 2013 machine. Between the 1 July 2021 failure at 0 miles and the 13 July 2021 pass at just 8 miles, the bike was barely run. It then accumulated 11,614 miles by July 2023, averaging under 900 miles per year across its life. Such low annual mileage implies long standing periods, which on a motorcycle raises the risk of seized calipers, flat-spotted tyres, and corrosion on exposed structural components rather than drivetrain fatigue. A buyer should physically inspect the front and rear brake calipers for binding or seizure given the prolonged storage implied by the mileage gaps. Examine the suspension linkages and fork seals for rust pitting or fluid weep, as standing moisture accelerates degradation on idle machines. Check the exhaust system and frame for surface corrosion, particularly around welds and the sidestand mount. The clean advisory history offers no recorded warnings, but the 2023 fail with no listed defect warrants confirmation that the July 2023 retest addressed whatever the initial examiner queried.
