2010 Yamaha YZF R6 0.6L Petrol · GU10 UEX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though recent MOT history indicates a recurring issue with consumable maintenance. The most recent test on 26 September 2025 at 15,502 miles resulted in a pass, but the tester flagged a rear tyre worn close to the legal limit. This follows a similar advisory in July 2023 at 14,872 miles, where the bike also failed initially due to the same tyre condition and a missing rear reflector. While the mechanical integrity of the drivetrain and chassis appears consistent, the pattern of tyre wear suggests the previous owner may overlook routine consumable replacements until they approach the legal threshold. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2010 model, averaging approximately 969 miles per year. The record shows very gradual accumulation, moving from 12,557 miles in June 2020 to 15,502 miles by September 2025. This low usage suggests the motorcycle has spent significant periods stationary. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and gearbox, it can lead to secondary issues such as perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, or degraded fuel. The data shows a clean history between 2016 and 2022, with no recorded defects during that period. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the tyres and rubber seals. Given the recurring advisory regarding rear tyre tread, a thorough check of the tyre manufacture dates and sidewall integrity is necessary to ensure they are not aged or cracked from long-term storage. You should also inspect the braking system for any signs of binding or corrosion on the discs and calipers, as the low annual mileage increases the risk of moisture-induced oxidation. Check the suspension seals and drive chain for signs of dryness or rust, which often accompany vehicles that are ridden infrequently.
