2017 Yamaha MT-09 Tracer ABS 0.8L Petrol · DA67 KWS

The Yamaha MT-09 Tracer ABS presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 6 December 2025 at 24,430 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of four consecutive annual passes. The absence of any advisory or failure across the entire history indicates the machine has been maintained to a standard that meets DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical concerns. The recorded mileage shows exceptionally light use for a nine-year-old motorcycle. In the 15 June 2022 test the odometer read 21,612 miles; by 14 June 2023 it showed 22,995 miles, a gain of 1,383 miles. The 10 June 2024 test logged 24,409 miles, then the December 2025 figure of 24,430 miles. This equates to roughly 2,700 miles per year, with only 21 miles added between June 2024 and December 2025. Such low accumulation suggests extended standing periods, which on a motorcycle can allow brake calipers to seize, tyres to degrade through age rather than wear, and fork seals to weep. A buyer should still verify in person the condition of components that low mileage and storage hide. The tester recorded no corrosion, suspension bush wear, or binding brakes, but standing invites oxidation on the chassis and disc faces. Inspect the front and rear brake calipers for free piston movement, check the tyres for sidewall cracking from age, and confirm the fork legs show no weepage. The battery and coolant should also be assessed for degradation from disuse. Given the spotless MOT trail, no structural or mechanical red flags emerge from the official record. The previous keeper clearly kept the Tracer to test standard, though the near-dormant final year means a careful physical check of consumables and stored-component condition remains sensible before purchase.
