2018 Yamaha MT 125 ABS 0.1L Petrol · SW18 OVZ

The Yamaha MT 125 ABS presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 20 January 2025 at 2,848 miles which recorded no defects. Prior tests in January 2024, September 2022, and October 2021 also passed with no advisories or faults raised. The machine has cleared every examination placed before it across four consecutive records. The mileage pattern shows extremely light use for an eight-year-old vehicle. The 2021 test at 568 miles rose only to 1,026 miles by the September 2022 and January 2024 tests, then jumped to 2,848 miles by January 2025. That final leap suggests roughly 1,822 miles were covered in the twelve months before the last test after three years of near-static readings. Such low annual averages, around 356 miles per year overall, point to long standing periods rather than regular riding. A clean MOT history with zero advisories gives no recorded warning on suspension bushes, brake calipers, discs, or structural corrosion. The buyer should still inspect the bike in person for age-related issues the annual test may miss on a seldom-ridden machine. Standing time promotes tyre perishing, seized linkages, and fork seal weeping even when the tester logs no defect. Check the ABS modulator and brake lines for fluid degradation, and confirm the chain and sprockets have not rusted from inactivity. The absent fault record implies prior owners kept basic statutory compliance but offers no proof of proactive servicing. A pre-purchase inspection remains sensible given the mileage gaps.
