2020 Yamaha MT 125 (mtn 125-A) 0.1L Petrol · RE20 BVF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in August 2024 at 10,863 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure just one week prior. The trend shows that critical drivetrain and securing components are only addressed when they fail an official inspection, suggesting the previous owner may have neglected routine mechanical checks until forced to act by the MOT tester. At 10,863 miles over six years, the motorcycle has covered a low annual mileage, averaging approximately 1,810 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between the August 2023 test at 5,453 miles and the July 2024 test, where it covered over 5,000 miles in eleven months. This erratic pattern suggests long periods of standing, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and the seizing of mechanical parts as seen in the 2024 failure report. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the drivetrain and mounting hardware. The 2024 failure for an excessively loose chain with seized links and a loose spot indicates the chain had reached the end of its service life despite the low mileage. You should verify that the replacement chain and sprockets show no uneven wear. Additionally, the nearside footrest was flagged as insecure in 2024, so all frame-mounted bolts must be checked for torque to prevent detachment during operation. The rear brake pedal was noted as bent in two consecutive 2024 tests; while it did not cause a failure, the physical damage should be inspected for stress fractures or play at the pivot point.
