1992 Yamaha XV1100 1.1L Petrol · Q578 VOF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 12 August 2025 at 36,966 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the motorcycle currently meets all minimum safety standards. Following a single failure in July 2023, the machine has maintained three consecutive inspections without advisories, suggesting that any previous issues were rectified and have not recurred. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 34-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,087 miles per year. Between June 2022 and August 2025, the vehicle covered only 1,090 miles, moving from 35,876 to 36,966 miles. This low usage suggests the bike spends significant periods in storage. While low mileage typically implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often leads to age-related degradation of rubber and fluid elements that do not show on an odometer alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to perish from age despite low-mileage use. Inspect for signs of cracking in the fuel lines, brake hoses, and fork seals, as these can become brittle over decades. Check the structural integrity of the frame for corrosion, particularly around the pivot points and mounting bolts, where moisture collects during storage. Given the infrequent use, verify that the brake calipers are not seized and that the tyres do not exhibit flat-spotting or rot despite having remaining tread depth.
