2020 Yamaha XSR 700 Xtribute 0.7L Petrol · DG70 RYA

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on April 29 2026 at 5,715 miles which passed with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to previous years, as the issues identified in earlier inspections have been rectified. The current status suggests the motorcycle meets all essential safety and emissions requirements for road. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 952 miles per year. Between September 2023 and May 2025, the vehicle covered only 145 miles, followed by another 405 miles leading up to the 2026 test. This pattern of usage suggests the bike has seen very light use or has spent significant periods stationary. Such low mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of age-based components like rubber seals and fluids, despite the lack of mechanical wear. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the exhaust system, as the tester flagged a noisy exhaust in both September 2023 and May 2025. While the 2026 pass suggests a repair, a manual check for heat shield leaks, loose mounting, or internal baffle damage is necessary to ensure the fault does not return. Given the low mileage and long intervals between use, inspect tyres for flat spots or perished cracking and check the brake fluid for moisture absorption, which occurs when a vehicle sits infrequently.
