2013 Yamaha Fazer 8 ABS 0.8L Petrol · YP13 KCV

The vehicle presents an excellent roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean history of passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 21 March 2026 at 23,245 miles recorded no defects, maintaining a stable and consistent maintenance trend. This consistency suggests the previous owner has maintained the motorcycle to a high standard, avoiding the mechanical or structural failures typically flagged during annual inspections. The mileage profile is notably low for a thirteen-year-old machine, averaging approximately 1,788 miles per year. Between March 2022 and March 2023, the bike covered only 4,295 miles, indicating long periods of minimal use. There was a noticeable increase in usage between April 2024 and March 2026, where the mileage climbed by 9,311 miles in two years. While low overall mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of non-mechanical parts due to age. Because the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on risks associated with low-mileage storage. A buyer must check for perished rubber components, such as fork seals, brake lines, and tyres, which can crack or lose elasticity regardless of tread depth. The brake discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or pitting, as stationary vehicles often develop light oxidation on the braking surfaces. Additionally, verify the chain and sprocket condition for rust spots and ensure that the low mileage has not resulted in neglect during the periods of inactivity.
