2016 Yamaha MT 0.8L Petrol · SP16 ATH

The 2025‑09‑08 MOT at 26,609 miles confirmed the Yamaha MT as roadworthy with no defects recorded, showing a maintenance trend that has remained stable since the 2020 test. All subsequent tests from 2020 to 2025 have produced the same clean result. Mileage has risen from 8,093 miles in the 2019 test to 26,609 miles in 2025, an average increase of roughly 1,500 miles per year after 2020, with no large gaps between inspections. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, look for structural rust on chassis rails and wheel arches, and check the exhaust for corrosion and tyre tread for uneven wear, as these components are prone to deterioration even when MOTs report no defects. Given the consistent clean record, the primary risk lies in concealed corrosion or gradual component fatigue, so a physical inspection focusing on these areas will confirm whether the vehicle truly remains in the condition suggested by the paperwork.
