2025 Yamaha MT-10 MTN1000 Petrol · SM54 THS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 23 March 2026 at 135,001 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a momentary failure in early March 2025. Since that failure, the motorcycle has maintained a clean record through subsequent inspections, suggesting that any specific issues identified at that time were rectified and the vehicle is currently operating within expected parameters under high load. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally aggressive for a vehicle of this age. The bike has covered 135,001 miles in approximately three years, averaging over 45,000 miles per annum. Between the March 2025 and March 2026 tests, the vehicle clocked 16,510 miles in just twelve months. This high rate of use indicates constant, heavy operation, likely for commercial or long-distance commuting purposes. Such mileage puts extreme mechanical strain on the drivetrain, engine components, and suspension assembly, significantly shortening the service life of consumables far more than a standard consumer service interval. A buyer must conduct a rigorous physical inspection of high-wear components that the MOT does not fully test. Given the 135,001-mile reading, prioritize the condition of the chain, sprockets, and final drive for signs of excessive stretch or sprocket wear. Inspect the front fork seals for leaks and the rear shock absorber for damping degradation, as the high mileage often accelerates hydraulic seal failure. Brake discs should be checked for thinning or deep scoring, and the consistent usage suggests the brake pads may be nearing the end of their functional life regardless of the recent MOT pass.
