2007 Yamaha YZF R6 0.6L Petrol · DX07 AVP

The 2026-01-14 MOT at 26,482 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the motorcycle is presently roadworthy. All subsequent tests from 2022 onward have also yielded clean results, indicating a stable maintenance record with no recurring mechanical failures. The mileage trajectory shows a low annual average of roughly 1,400 miles for a 19‑year‑old machine, yet the jump from 17,506 miles in July 2022 to 24,311 miles in February 2023 represents an acceleration of about 6,800 miles in six months, suggesting a period of more intensive use or a temporary mileage discrepancy. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, particularly the rear mono‑shock pivot that was noted as worn in the 2014 test and the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components can develop play over time. Inspection of the braking system for any binding rear calipers, the integrity of the brake discs, and the functional operation of all lighting units and reflectors is essential, given the earlier 2021 lighting failures and the 2014 exhaust noise advisory that hinted at possible corrosion or mounting wear. Finally, a visual assessment of the chassis for structural rust, especially around the exhaust mounts and frame joints, together with a check of tyre tread depth and condition, will complete the due‑diligence process before finalising the purchase.
