2018 Yamaha X-MAX 125 ABS 0.1L Petrol · FE18 SFK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. The most recent MOT test in March 2024 at 26,563 miles resulted in a pass only after addressing an inoperative registration plate lamp and a front tyre reaching the legal limit. While the bike passed the inspection, the history suggests that the owner only addresses faults when they trigger a test failure rather than performing preventative maintenance between annual intervals. At 26,563 miles over eight years, the Yamaha averages a low annual usage of approximately 3,320 miles. This low-mile pattern is consistent between 2021 and 2024, where the vehicle covered 13,188 miles in three years. Such low mileage generally implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain compared to high-mile counterparts. However, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and oxidation of metal surfaces, which aligns with the corrosion-related issues noted in earlier records. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking system. The 2021 test flagged light oil misting on both front shock absorbers, which should be checked for increased leaks that indicate imminent seal failure. Additionally, the recorded history of a grabbing rear brake in 2021 and a cracked exhaust clamp in the same year suggests that the rear assembly and exhaust hardware may benefit from a thorough service. Given the recurring mentions of worn tyres in both 2023 and 2024, the current tread depth and condition of all tyres must be verified to ensure they do not require immediate replacement.
