2022 Yamaha MT-09 (MTN890) 0.9L Petrol · NJ72 XSC

This 2022 Yamaha MT-09 presents with a very limited MOT history, having only completed its first test in September 2025. With a clean pass and no recorded defects at 7,007 miles, the vehicle currently shows no evidence of mechanical neglect or recurring safety issues. The recorded mileage of 1,752 miles per year is notably low for a performance motorcycle of this type. While this suggests the bike has not been subjected to the high-mileage wear typically seen on commuting machines, it also raises the possibility of extended periods of inactivity. Motorcycles that sit for long durations can suffer from fuel degradation, battery discharge, and potential corrosion if not stored in a climate-controlled environment. Because there is only a single data point in the MOT history, it is impossible to establish a trend of improvement or deterioration. The history is effectively a clean slate, which is expected for a vehicle of this age. The primary risk here is not necessarily past failure, but rather the condition of consumables that may have aged due to time rather than distance. When inspecting the bike in person, your first priority should be to check for signs of long-term storage or neglect. Look closely at the chain and sprockets for signs of surface rust, which often indicates the bike has been standing idle.
