2002 Yamaha FZS600 0.6L Petrol · FE02 BDY

The 2002 Yamaha FZS600 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 12 August 2025 at 63,019 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Every prior test in this history passed cleanly, with no advisories or failures logged across the five examinations from 2020 to 2025. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical condition and no recurring fault pattern requiring concern from the official record. At roughly 24 years old the machine carries 63,019 recorded miles, an average of about 2,626 miles per year. The mileage trace is exceptionally flat. The tester logged 59,886 miles on 3 September 2020, then 60,680 on 21 September 2021, 61,324 on 14 July 2023, 61,381 on 8 August 2024, and 63,019 on 12 August 2025. A gap exists between the 2021 and 2023 tests, with the 2023 entry dated July rather than September. Low annual use of this order often means long standing periods, which the clean record does not contradict. A buyer should still inspect the motorcycle in person for age-related degradation the MOT does not itemise. Standing time promotes fork seal weeping, flat-spotted tyres, and corrosion on frame and exhaust mounting points. The tester noted no structural integrity issues, yet a 2002 chassis demands a close look at swingarm pivots, steering head bearings, and brake caliper condition for internal seizure after disuse. Given the sparse but unbroken pass history, previous keepers appear to have stored the bike rather than ridden it hard. Verify the actual odometer against the DVSA figures, check coolant and brake fluid age, and confirm the chain and sprockets have not degraded through inactivity before purchase.
