2018 BMW R1200 1.2L Petrol · YN68 RBV

The 2018 BMW R1200 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 November 2025 at 71,780 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the vehicle's recorded history. Annual mileage has tracked close to the typical expectation for an eight-year-old machine. The record shows 28,984 miles at the 2 December 2021 test, rising to 43,137 by 22 November 2022, then 49,668 on 9 November 2023, 61,566 on 18 November 2024, and 71,780 by November 2025. The yearly increments sit between roughly 7,000 and 12,000 miles with no abrupt jumps or standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse on advisories, listing no faults at any stage, which suggests either disciplined upkeep or tests conducted on a low-wear example. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, front and rear brake discs, and caliper operation given the age and near 72,000 miles of use. The absence of recorded corrosion or exhaust emissions failures points to sound structural integrity, but MOT passes alone do not confirm component remaining life. Check tyre date codes and chain and sprocket wear in person, since these consumables fall outside MOT fault capture once above legal minimums. The clean record implies previous owners kept the machine to standard, yet no history replaces a physical check of steering head bearings and final drive before purchase.
