2022 Yamaha MT-10 MTN1000 1.0L Petrol · GY22 RHF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-05-08 at 15,169 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the bike was in full compliance with UK roadworthiness standards at that point, though the sparse history—comprising only a single test—limits broader trend analysis. The absence of repeated failures or advisories suggests no obvious pattern of neglect, but the lack of prior tests means critical wear patterns, such as suspension degradation or brake fade, cannot be confirmed or ruled out. The recorded mileage of 15,169 miles over approximately four years equates to an average of around 3,792 miles annually, which is unusually low for a motorcycle of this age and usage profile. Such low mileage could imply limited riding, prolonged storage, or even potential odometer manipulation, though the latter cannot be verified without further evidence. The gap between the 2025 test and today (2026-07-24) spans nearly 14 months, meaning the bike has not undergone an MOT since then. While this period is within the standard 12-month validity window, the absence of a recent test raises questions about whether routine maintenance—such as chain lubrication, tyre condition, or brake fluid service—has been consistently addressed. Given the lack of historical MOT data, a prospective buyer should prioritise an immediate inspection of high-wear components. The suspension system, particularly the rear shock absorbers and steering head bearings, should be checked for excessive play or fluid leaks, as these are common issues on motorcycles with low mileage but prolonged storage. Brake pads and discs warrant scrutiny, especially if the bike has been left unused, as moisture can accelerate corrosion. Tyre tread depth and lateral wear patterns must also be verified, as the single MOT pass does not confirm whether tread limits were ever approached. Finally, the electrical system—including battery health, wiring integrity, and indicator functionality—should be tested, as these elements degrade even with minimal riding. Given the sparse maintenance record, no assumptions about long-term reliability can be made without further evidence.
