2016 Yamaha Tracer 700 MT-07 Tracer 0.7L Petrol · GY66 OSJ

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend following a period of reactive repairs. The most recent MOT on 26 May 2022 at 51,778 miles passed with no defects, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years were addressed. However, as four years have elapsed since this last recorded test, the vehicle's current roadworthiness status is unverified and requires an immediate inspection to ensure continued compliance with UK safety standards. The recorded mileage of 51,778 miles over ten years reflects lower-than-average usage patterns, averaging approximately 5,178 miles per annum. There is a significant gap in usage data between October 2020 and May 2022, where the bike covered nearly 20,000 miles in a short window, followed by a period of apparent inactivity. This pattern suggests the motorcycle may have sat stationary for extended periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, seized calipers, or fluid contamination despite the low overall odometer reading. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and drivetrain, given the historical failures in October 2020. The tester flagged both front and rear brake discs as worn and pitted, alongside a front wheel bearing with excessive play. While these were cleared in the subsequent test, the discs should be checked for deep scoring or thinning, and the bearings for any lateral movement. Additionally, the drive chain was previously noted for being loose; the buyer must inspect the chain for stretch and sprocket-tooth wear to ensure the drivetrain has not suffered from the periods of storage implied by the mileage history.
