2019 Yamaha Mt 07 Abs

CarHunch analysed 1,014 real MOT records for the 2019 Yamaha Mt 07 Abs. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2019 Yamaha MT-07 ABS is marginally more reliable than the UK average, with an 80.7% first-time pass rate versus 80% nationally—a negligible difference that puts it squarely in the mainstream. The dangerous defect rate of 7.7% is reassuringly low, suggesting structural and safety issues are uncommon in this cohort.

At a median mileage of 7,353 miles for a five-year-old bike, these machines are lightly used, which explains the low failure rate of 0.32 per vehicle. The 1.4 advisories per bike typically point to minor wear items rather than mechanical problems, so budget for routine servicing and consumables, but don't expect surprise repairs—have a pre-purchase inspection focus on suspension wear and brake fluid condition.

What to check before buying a 2019 Yamaha Mt 07 Abs

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
