2016 Yamaha NS 0.0L Petrol · YP66 WJL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward neglect after years of clean records. While it passed the most recent test in March 2026 at 19,105 miles, the tester identified multiple defects that were absent in the previous three years. The transition from a clean sheet in 2025 to a list of advisories in 2026 suggests that components are now reaching the end of their service life despite the low annual mileage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,910 miles per year. Between March 2022 and March 2026, the vehicle covered only 3,661 miles, indicating it sits for long periods or is used sporadically. This low usage explains the minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it often leads to age-related issues such as rubber degradation and surface corrosion on metal components, as evidenced by the pitted condition of the brake discs noted in the 2026 test. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and control hardware. The March 2026 test flagged pitting and scoring on both the nearside front and nearside rear brake discs, alongside a fluctuation in brake effort on the front side. The offside front upper brake lever is also bent, which requires replacement to ensure proper mechanical leverage and structural integrity. Furthermore, the central front tyre is at the legal depth limit, indicating that immediate expenditure is required to maintain safety.
