2007 Yamaha XVS1100 1.1L Petrol · FM56 YHP

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on 18 May 2026 at 11,242 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable trend over the last five years. This consistency suggests that the motorcycle has been maintained to a standard that meets regulatory requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 19-year-old machine, averaging approximately 592 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of low use between November 2022 and November 2023, where the vehicle covered only 47 miles in twelve months. However, there is a recent increase in activity; between November 2024 and May 2026, the odometer recorded 1,890 miles. While the low total mileage limits mechanical wear on the drivetrain components and suspension, the intermittent use often masks the degradation of rubber components and fluids. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must inspect components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage. Particular attention should be paid to dry rot or cracking in the tyres, fuel lines, and brake hoses, as these become brittle over long periods of standing. The buyer should check for seized brake calipers or perished fork seals, as low-frequency use often fails to keep internal seals lubricated and moving. Additionally, verifying the state of the fuel system and exhaust manifold is essential to ensure that the low-mileage history has not resulted in internal corrosion or varnish accumulation.
