2014 Yamaha Fazer 8 ABS 0.8L Petrol · DL63 EBK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean MOT results. The most recent test on October 24 2022 at 26,319 miles resulted in a pass following a minor failure for a missing rear reflector, which is a cosmetic defect that does not indicate mechanical or structural neglect. The absence of advisories across the previous tests suggests that the primary components have remained within acceptable operating parameters during the recorded testing periods. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,193 miles per year. Between April 2019 and November 2020, the bike covered only 2,683 miles, indicating very infrequent use or long periods of storage. The 3,167 miles recorded between November 2020 and November 2022 further reinforces this trend of minimal usage. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, such low activity often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid-related issues due to lack of circulation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on items associated with low-mileage, long-term storage. Since the record does not flag specific issues like suspension leaks or brake corrosion, the inspector must check for dry rot on tyres, perished brake hoses, and seized calipers despite the low mileage. Inspect the fork seals for weeping and verify the age of the battery and fluids, as the age of these components is often a greater risk factor than the distance traveled on a vehicle of this age.
