2016 BMW R1200 1.2L Petrol · EN66 FMD

The current roadworthiness status of this BMW R1200 is excellent, with a stable and clean maintenance trend evidenced by the most recent MOT. The vehicle passed its test on 9 May 2025 at 9,707 miles with zero defects recorded, following a similarly clean pass on 24 February 2024 at 8,451 miles. The absence of any advisories across these consecutive inspections indicates that the motorcycle has been subjected to diligent care and that no immediate mechanical or structural failures are currently present. The recorded mileage of 9,707 miles over a ten-year period reflects a very low usage pattern, averaging less than 1,000 miles per annum. While this suggests the machine has spent significant time in storage, the consistent, albeit infrequent, testing schedule implies the owner has maintained a regular cycle of inspection. There is no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation or neglect, though the low usage profile necessitates specific attention to components that degrade through inactivity rather than mechanical friction. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of rubber components, such as fork seals, coolant hoses, and tyres, as these materials can perish or harden during long periods of standing. Check the brake fluid for signs of moisture contamination and ensure the fuel system is free from varnish or debris caused by stagnant petrol. Given the bike's age and low mileage, verify that the battery holds a charge under load and confirm that the engine starts cleanly from cold without signs of hesitation or smoke, which would indicate potential issues with the fuel injection or internal seals.
