2019 Yamaha XVS 950 XR-A - SCR 950 0.9L Petrol · PL68 ORT

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable and clean MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 13 March 2026 at 4,150 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This streak of clean passes over the last five years indicates that the mechanical and structural components have remained within operating parameters without any recurring failures or safety-related issues. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 593 miles per year. Between March 2022 and March 2023, the bike covered only 283 miles, suggesting long periods of stationary storage. There has been a slight increase in usage since, with 411 miles recorded between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 177 miles covered since the April 2025 test. This low-frequency use means minimal wear on the engine, drivetrain, and braking system. While the records show no mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on the risks associated with low-mileage storage. You must check for signs of tyre perish or flat spotting due to the bike sitting stationary for extended periods. Inspect the brake lines for cracking and the fluid for moisture, as these components degrade even without frequent use. Additionally, verify the chain for surface rust and tension, ensuring that the low mileage has not led to neglected lubrication or seized seals in the fork suspension.
