2005 BMW R1200 1.2L Petrol · KA05 YYU

The most recent MOT on 23 April 2025 at 74,315 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating the motorcycle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance trend is stable across the three successive tests. Mileage has risen from 69,390 miles in June 2022 to 74,315 miles in April 2025, an average of roughly 2,500 miles per year during that period. For a 2005 model this equates to a very low annual distance, suggesting light use rather than periods of neglect; no abrupt spikes or gaps appear in the record. A prospective buyer should examine the front and rear suspension bushings and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as age‑related wear can develop despite low mileage. Brake discs and pads merit visual and tactile inspection for glazing or uneven wear, and tyre tread depth should be measured to confirm consumable condition. A thorough check for corrosion on the frame, exhaust system, and any structural rust is advisable, as MOT testing does not always capture early-stage corrosion. Verifying that regular service intervals have been adhered to will further clarify the bike’s overall mechanical health.
