2009 Yamaha YZF 0.1L Petrol · FJ09 XZC

The Yamaha YZF passed its most recent MOT on 9 February 2026 at 29,258 miles with no defects recorded, indicating current roadworthiness is sound. The maintenance trend is stable, with three consecutive passes and a single failure on 2 February 2026 at 29,069 miles that recorded no defects, suggesting the failure was administrative rather than mechanical. The machine shows low use for a 2009 model, covering only about 29,258 miles in roughly 17 years, an average near 1,721 miles annually. Records show 19,053 miles at the February 2024 test, 22,722 miles in January 2025, and 29,069 miles by February 2026. That is around 7,200 miles added in the last two years, a mild rise from prior low annual rates but still light. No long dormant gaps appear, and the clean advisory history points to basic upkeep being maintained. A buyer should still inspect the bike in person for age-related wear not captured by the MOT. Suspension bushes, fork seals, and rear shock condition warrant a close look given the 17-year lifespan. Brake discs, caliper action, and hose flexibility need checking despite no binding or corrosion flags in the record. Structural points around the frame and exhaust should be examined for hidden rust, as the tests noted no corrosion but standing periods can hide decay. The clean record implies a careful owner, yet low mileage with sparse tests means consumables like tyres and chain may have aged rather than worn. A pre-purchase inspection remains sensible.
