2003 Yamaha R6 0.6L Petrol · LD03 TTZ

This vehicle is in a stable state of roadworthiness with a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test on 10 March 2026 at 20,162 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of five consecutive passes without a single advisory or failure, suggesting a high standard of mechanical upkeep or a very light duty cycle. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 23 year old motorcycle, averaging roughly 877 miles per year. The data shows very little usage over the last five years. Between the September 2021 test at 19,463 miles and the January 2025 test at 20,156 miles, the bike covered only 693 miles over three years. Only 6 miles were added between January 2025 and March 2026. Such prolonged periods of inactivity often pose more risk to a machine than high mileage. A buyer must prioritise an inspection of components that degrade regardless of distance. The low usage pattern suggests the tyres may be aged and hard, even if the tread remains deep. Check for perished rubber on the footpeg grips and indicators. The braking system requires scrutiny for binding calipers or internal corrosion within the discs due to the bike standing still for long intervals. Verify the condition of the battery and the fuel system. Long periods of dormancy can lead to fuel varnish in the injectors or tank corrosion. Ensure the fork seals are not leaking and that the chain is properly lubricated, as lack of movement often leads to seized links or surface rust on the sprockets.
