2007 Yamaha FZ1 N 1.0L Petrol · PN07 CSU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward neglect-related wear. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 23,403 miles passed, it revealed multiple advisories that indicate a lack of preventative care. The presence of a worn front tyre, a noisy exhaust, a loose drive chain, and worn suspension bushes suggests that while the bike remains legal, mechanical components are being addressed only when they approach failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 19-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,232 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between November 2022 at 21,461 miles and July 2024 at 21,775 miles, where the bike covered only over 300 miles in nearly 20 months. This low-use pattern often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals due to age rather than friction, which correlates with the issues noted in the record. A buyer must focus inspection on the braking system and suspension. The failure in July 2024 specifically flagged contaminated front brake pads and a binding caliper; these issues often stem from leaking seals or long periods of inactivity. The light misting of oil on the rear shock absorber noted in 2024 persists as a concern and should be monitored for signs of a total seal failure. Additionally, the noisy exhaust and worn suspension rod bushes identified in 2025 require a physical check to ensure the structural integrity of the mounting remains sound and the drive chain is properly tensioned.
