2009 Yamaha XJR1300 1.3L Petrol · YP09 FHR

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent MOT test on 26 March 2026 at 11,456 miles. This follows a consistent history of passes, suggesting that the mechanical and safety components are currently functional. The most recent inspections show no recorded defects or advisories, indicating the bike has been kept in a high state of repair despite its age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old motorcycle, with a total of 11,456 miles representing an average of approximately 674 miles per year. The data shows significant gaps between tests, such as the 652-mile increase between June 2023 and February 2025, and the 135-mile interval between the last two annual tests. While this suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such low usage often leads to degradation of rubber-based parts and fluid-related issues due to periods of standing. A physical inspection should focus on the effects of long-term storage and age. Although the 2023 test at 10,773 miles flagged slightly damaged valve stems, the subsequent clean passes suggest these were either addressed or did not reach a failure threshold. A buyer must check for perished fuel lines, seized brake calipers, and fork seal corrosion, which frequently occur regardless of low mileage. Given the infrequent use, verifying the condition of tyres for cracking and the suspension seals is critical, as these components degrade through time even when the vehicle is not being ridden.
