2003 Yamaha Serow 0.2L Petrol · K450 RCR

The most recent MOT on 7 June 2022 at 18,023 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that at that point the motorcycle met the statutory requirements. However, more than four years have elapsed since that test, so the present roadworthiness cannot be confirmed without a current inspection. Across a 23‑year lifespan the bike has accumulated just 18,023 miles, averaging roughly 784 miles per year. Such low mileage points to light usage or extended periods of storage rather than any rapid mileage build‑up. The record contains a single MOT entry, leaving a gap in documented maintenance but showing no evidence of recurring faults. A prospective buyer should examine tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as ageing rubber can deteriorate irrespective of mileage. Inspect front and rear brake pads and discs for wear or glazing, and verify that calipers move freely without binding. Check suspension components—coil springs, fork seals, and bushings—for signs of corrosion or leakage. A visual survey of the frame and swingarm for rust or structural damage, coupled with a review of recent service records, will provide the necessary confidence before committing to purchase.
