2000 Yamaha YZF 600 R 0.6L Petrol · X959 UDM

The latest MOT on 4 January 2024 at 27,258 miles recorded a pass, with the tester flagging only a slight fluctuation in rear‑brake effort (1.2.1 (e)). Earlier failures for headlamp aim, stop‑lamp operation and rear‑wheel alignment on 28 October 2022 were rectified before the subsequent pass, indicating that corrective work was undertaken. Across the record the pattern shows a stable maintenance trend, with no recurring serious defects after 2016. Mileage averages roughly 1,050 miles per year for a 2000‑model bike, confirming very light utilisation. The log shows a consistent rise: 15,238 miles in July 2006, 16,759 miles in July 2007, 24,937 miles in January 2009, 26,350 miles in April 2016, 26,420 miles in October 2022 and 27,258 miles in January 2024. No period of rapid accumulation is evident, and the intervals between tests suggest the vehicle has spent considerable time stationary or under low‑stress use. A prospective buyer should examine the tyre condition immediately; both front and rear tyres are recorded as 16 years old, well beyond typical service life, and the 2009 failure highlighted tread and cut issues that may have resurfaced. The rear‑brake fluctuation noted in 2024 warrants a full inspection of brake pads, discs and caliper operation. Wheel alignment should be checked again, given the prior 10 mm front‑wheel discrepancy, and the headlamp aim and stop‑lamp function must be verified to ensure compliance. Finally, a visual survey of suspension bushes, coil springs and any signs of corrosion on the frame will confirm that the low‑mileage usage has not concealed structural wear.
