Our Verdict
This 2007 Yamaha YZ shows generally reliable MOT history but carries some risk due to a 2021 exhaust issue and lack of model-specific data. A thorough pre-purchase inspection is recommended.
Focus on inspecting the exhaust system for leaks or damage, as this was the only recorded issue. Check for a full service history to confirm maintenance standards. Be cautious about the lack of model-specific reliability data and consider getting a specialist motorcycle mechanic's inspection. Negotiate based on the single MOT failure and the vehicle's age.
The 250cc petrol engine should offer good fuel economy, likely around 50-60 mpg. As a 2007 model, it would fall into a low tax band (£145 per year for 2023/24). Insurance costs may be average for a 250cc motorcycle. Maintenance costs could be low if well-maintained, but parts availability for this older model may vary. Estimated annual running cost: £800-£1,000.
Pay close attention to the exhaust system for cracks or leaks, especially around the 2021 MOT failure area. Check the engine's overall condition, including oil leaks and compression. Inspect the braking system and tires for wear. Verify that all electrical components function properly. Review service records to confirm regular maintenance.
The 2007 Yamaha YZ has a mostly clean MOT record with only one minor failure in 2021 (noisy exhaust). As a 2007 model with 250cc petrol engine, it falls into a niche category with no aggregate reliability data. The blue colour and 2007 registration year suggest it's a relatively early example of this model.
No aggregate MOT data available for YAMAHA YZ models to assess overall reliability trends.
