2018 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT 0.8L Petrol · WR18 HKV

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 31 July 2025, at 18,990 miles, recorded no defects or advisories. This trend of stability has persisted over the last five years, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components have been well-maintained without the recurring failures often seen in neglected machinery. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,374 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 11,998 miles and July 2025 at 18,990 miles, the bike covered roughly 7,000 miles. This steady but low-intensity pattern indicates light use, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension. However, low mileage over long periods can sometimes lead to the degradation of perishables and rubber-based components through age rather than mechanical tear. Given the clean electronic record, a physical inspection should focus on age-related factors associated with low-mileage storage. Check for surface corrosion on the brake discs and fork seals, which can occur if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. Verify the condition of the tyres for dry rot, as the tread depth likely remains sufficient while the rubber ages. Additionally, inspect the chain and sprockets for stretch or rust, as low-use bikes often suffer from inconsistent lubrication compared to high-mileage counterparts.
