Our Verdict
A highly recommended purchase for those seeking a well-maintained cruiser with exceptionally low mileage. Provided the recent minor electrical and brake issues are addressed, this Yamaha XVS1100 presents as a very solid example.
When viewing this motorcycle, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure that the low mileage has been matched by regular maintenance, especially given the age of the vehicle. While the recent MOT failure for a front stop lamp is a minor electrical fix, it is worth checking the overall health of the wiring loom and battery to ensure no other age-related electrical gremlins exist.
Negotiate based on the recent MOT advisory regarding the rear brake binding noted in March 2025. Ensure the seller has addressed this or that you have factored the cost of a brake service into your offer. Additionally, check for any signs of fluid leaks around the 1063cc engine, as long-term sitting can sometimes lead to gasket issues.
As a large-capacity cruiser, running costs will be higher than a commuter bike but typical for a 1100cc machine. Fuel economy is generally respectable for this class, though it will depend heavily on riding style. Tax and insurance will vary based on your personal profile and the specific insurance group assigned to the XVS1100.
Maintenance costs for Yamaha cruisers are generally predictable, though you should budget for periodic tyre replacements and chain maintenance. Given the low mileage, you may find that consumables like brake pads and tyres last longer than average, but rubber components can age even without heavy use.
Pay close attention to the exhaust system. The MOT history shows a recurring theme of 'exhaust noisy' advisories dating back to 2014, 2015, and 2016. Inspect the headers and silencers for any signs of corrosion, leaks, or loose mounting bolts that could be causing this noise.
Secondly, inspect the braking system thoroughly. The vehicle has a history of rear brake issues, including a 'seriously reduced strength' failure in 2014 and a 'binding' advisory in 2025. Ensure the rear caliper moves freely and that the discs show no excessive scoring. Finally, check the lighting assembly, specifically the front stop lamp and reflectors, to ensure the electrical system is fully functional following the recent 2026 MOT failure.
This 2006 Yamaha XVS1100 in Silver is a remarkably low-mileage example, having covered just 29,293 miles in its 20-year lifespan. The MOT history is largely clean, showing a consistent pattern of passing tests with only minor advisory notes regarding exhaust noise and brake wear over the years. Its longevity is underscored by the fact that it has maintained a steady, low-use profile since its first registration in April 2006.
While specific aggregate data for the XVS1100 is unavailable, the individual history of this vehicle suggests a robust mechanical platform that handles long intervals between tests well.
