2011 Yamaha XJ600 0.6L Petrol · LD61 ABF

The 2011 Yamaha XJ600 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with all five consecutive MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent test on 2025-11-07 at 5,261 miles confirmed compliance, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. No advisories or failures are noted across the 15-year span, suggesting the vehicle has been well-preserved. The mileage of 5,261 miles over 15 years equates to an average of 351 miles annually, significantly lower than typical usage. This pattern implies infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate component degradation through fluid stagnation, corrosion, or rubber aging. The MOT records show no gaps beyond standard annual intervals, but the lack of mileage progression raises questions about whether the bike has been driven consistently or stored for extended periods. A buyer should inspect for signs of inactivity-related wear, such as hardened brake hoses, degraded suspension bushes, or seized clutch components. Despite the clean MOT history, the low mileage means critical systems like the engine, transmission, and electrical connections may not have been tested under varied conditions. Pay close attention to the exhaust system for corrosion and the frame for structural fatigue, as these can develop unnoticed in vehicles with minimal use.
