2002 Yamaha FZS1000 1.0L Petrol · LR52 AEG

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile according to the available MOT history. The most recent test on 24 April 2025 at 22,896 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a series of successful inspections dating back to 2021, suggesting a consistent standard of upkeep and no recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged by the tester. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 954 miles per year. The records show a steady progression from 11,312 miles in March 2021 to 22,896 miles in April 2025. While the low annual mileage indicates light usage, the relatively low total distance covered over 24 years can sometimes lead to issues related to long periods of standing, such as perished rubber components or seized calipers. A physical inspection should focus on verifying the condition of consumables that the MOT testing regime does not always scrutinise deeply. Given the low usage, check for age-related degradation in the tyres, suspension bushes, and various rubber hoses. Inspect the brake discs for pitting or corrosion and check the chain and sprocket assembly for uneven wear or dryness, as these components often suffer more from inactivity than from high mileage. The absence of any advisories regarding structural integrity or emissions throughout the recorded history is a positive indicator. However, the buyer should still confirm that the low mileage is reflected in the overall condition of the drivetrain and that no significant corrosion has developed on the frame or exhaust system during periods of stationary storage.
