2015 Yamaha R3 0.3L Petrol · FD15 ADX

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 1 March 2025 at 22,275 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This suggests that the mechanical and safety components have remained maintained to a high standard without the recurring failures often seen in poorly tended machinery. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,025 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between February 2023 at 12,145 miles and March 2024 at 18,352 miles, where the bike covered 6,000 miles in a single year. While the low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long periods of inactivity between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or fluid oxidation, which are not always captured by the MOT tester. Despite the clean digital record, a buyer must verify the physical condition of low-mileage, high-age assets. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking, as rubber often degrades before the tread reaches legal limits on stationary bikes. Check the brake lines for perish or corrosion and inspect the suspension fork seals for weeping leaks caused by infrequent use. Since the record shows no historical structural rust or mechanical failures, the focus should remain on ensuring that age-related perishability has been managed despite the low odometer readings.
