2019 Yamaha YS 125 0.1L Petrol · KT19 FDK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a decline in proactive care in recent months. While it passed its most recent test on 4 June 2025 at 3,585 miles, it had failed just four days prior at 3,581 miles. This failure revealed multiple issues including a bent handlebar restricting movement, low headlamp aim, and a worn rear tyre, indicating that the previous owner only addressed faults upon inspection failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 512 miles per year. However, there is a significant discrepancy in the recorded data. The 2024 test recorded 5,951 miles, yet the 2025 test recorded only 3,585 miles. This drop of over 2,300 miles in one year suggests either a recording error or a replaced odometer. If the lower figure is accurate, the bike has sat stationary for long periods, which can lead to degradation of rubber components, fuel systems, and fluid seals despite the low mechanical wear. A buyer must physically inspect the handlebars to ensure the bend was properly rectified and that movement is free without binding. The 2024 report of a worn drive chain and sprocket necessitates a close look at the drivetrain for tension and stretch, as these components degrade over time. Given the low mileage and the recent failure for a worn tyre, check all tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spots as age often affects rubber faster than tread wear on low-use vehicles.
