2015 Yamaha MT 0.8L Petrol · KP09 YAM

The Yamaha MT presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 5 May 2025 at 15,365 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across five consecutive annual examinations from 12 August 2021 to the 2025 test, the machine cleared every assessment without a single advisory or failure. This unbroken clean record indicates consistent regulatory compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns. The recorded mileage reflects exceptionally light use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The 2021 test at 3,075 miles and the 2022 test at 3,083 miles show the bike covered only eight miles in a full year, suggesting prolonged storage. Distance then climbed to 8,187 miles by 2 August 2023, 12,667 miles by 24 July 2024, and 15,365 miles by May 2025, an average of roughly 1,397 miles per annum. No faults emerged across this low-stress profile, and the sparse, clean history offers no evidence of deferred consumable replacement or neglected servicing intervals. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on components prone to deterioration through inactivity rather than wear. Long standing periods risk perished suspension bushes, seized calipers, and internal corrosion within the brake lines or exhaust system despite the absence of test advisories. Tyre sidewall cracking from age and flat-spotted rubber merit close examination even though tread depth never triggered a defect. The absence of any structural, emissions, or drivetrain flags across the record implies prior owners maintained the machine to a basic legal standard. Verify the chain, sprockets, and fork seals visually, as these fall outside MOT scope yet degrade on a lightly ridden machine. The documented history supports a sound purchase subject to routine pre-sale checks.
