2018 Yamaha MT-09 ABS 0.8L Petrol · HS18 AAY

The vehicle maintains a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent pass history across all documented inspections. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 14,540 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This stable trend indicates that the motorcycle has been maintained to a standard that prevents mechanical or structural failures from manifesting over the last several years. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old motorcycle averaging approximately 1,818 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between May 2022 and May 2023, where the bike covered only 2,325 miles, followed by a more active period of 3,775 miles in the following year. While the low total mileage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, the long intervals between miles indicate the vehicle may have sat for extended periods between test cycles. Because the MOT history shows no recurring faults or structural rust, a buyer should shift focus toward components affected by low-mileage stationary time. It is essential to inspect the rubber components for cracking, specifically the tyres and fork seals, which artwork over time irrespective of mileage. Additionally, a physical inspection should check the chain for dry-rust and ensure that the brake fluid has not absorbed moisture, as these areas often degrade on bikes that are used sparingly.
