2015 BMW R 1200 1.2L Petrol · MA15 JOJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its latest MOT in April 2026 at 19,782 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, though the most recent inspection indicates a minor decline in consumable upkeep. While the tester flagged the front tyre as worn close to the legal limit during the 2026 test, the previous three years of clean records suggest the motorcycle has generally been maintained in good mechanical condition without significant failures. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent but low-frequency usage patterns, with a gap of 4,090 miles between the March 2025 and April 2026 tests, and smaller intervals in the earlier annual records. This low mileage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but it also increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber parts, seals, and fluids if the bike has spent long periods sitting stationary. A buyer should specifically inspect the offside front shock absorber, which was noted for light oil misting in April 2023 at 11,950 miles. Although this did not cause a failure, the misting indicates a developing seal failure that may eventually lead to a significant leak. Given the recent advisory regarding the front tyre, a thorough check of the remaining tread depth on all tyres is necessary, as low-mileage tyres often suffer from dry rot or cracking before reaching the legal depth limit.
