2017 Yamaha GPD125-A Nmax 125 ABS 0.1L Petrol · PK67 AEF

The most recent MOT test on 2022-05-03—just under four years ago—shows the vehicle passed without any recorded defects, though it is unusual to note two identical entries (one pass, one fail) at the same mileage and date. This suggests either a rare administrative duplication in the DVSA system or a deliberate retest, but no mechanical issues were flagged. The absence of advisories or repeated failures over the past four years indicates no obvious worsening trend in structural or critical systems. However, the lack of any MOT since then means no recent verification of wear items like tyres, brakes, or suspension components, which degrade predictably over time. The recorded mileage of 22,384 miles at the last test, combined with the vehicle’s 2017 manufacture date, suggests exceptionally light use—approximately 2,487 miles per year. This is well below the average for a scooter of this age, which typically accumulates 5,000–8,000 miles annually. The gap between the 2021 test at 16,284 miles and the 2022 retest at 22,384 miles implies the vehicle was stationary or used minimally for nearly 18 months, a period that could accelerate corrosion risks in exposed components or degrade fluid-based systems like brakes and hydraulics if not maintained. The sparse MOT history makes it impossible to confirm whether routine services were performed during this period. Given the lack of recent testing, a buyer should prioritise an immediate inspection of high-wear items such as the tyre tread depth (particularly the rear, which often wears faster on scooters) and the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or glazing. The suspension bushes and coil springs, while less likely to fail suddenly due to the low mileage, should be checked for perished rubber or corrosion, especially if the vehicle was stored in damp conditions. The ABS system, though not explicitly tested for faults in the MOT history, warrants verification for fluid leaks or degraded hydraulic lines, as ABS components can degrade passively over time even with minimal use. Finally, a thorough examination of the frame and underbody for corrosion—particularly around the fuel tank, exhaust, and suspension mounts—is essential, given the prolonged periods of inactivity.
