2019 Yamaha MT-07 ABS 0.7L Petrol · KT19 FDN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent MOT history indicates a downward trend in maintenance standards. While it passed the test on 11 June 2026 at 24,342 miles, it had failed just ten days prior for multiple significant defects. The transition from a clean record in 2025 to a failure involving lighting, suspension, and exhaust in 2026 suggests that the current owner is only addressing issues upon a test failure rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 3,477 miles per year. Data shows a consistent progression, moving from 13,615 miles in May 2024 to 19,665 miles in June 2025, and reaching 24,342 miles by June 2026. This low usage generally limits mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, though the long intervals between miles can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and fluid seals if the bike has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front shock absorbers, as both the nearside and offside units were flagged for oil misting in the June 2026 test. While misting is initially minor, it indicates seal wear that will eventually lead to total failure. The exhaust system also requires scrutiny for loose mountings or internal baffle damage, given the noisy exhaust defect that caused the recent failure. Additionally, the front tyre was noted as nearing legal limits during the last test, so the buyer should verify the remaining tread depth to ensure it does not require immediate replacement.
