HOW MANY YAMAHA XVS650 ARE LEFT?

There are 703 YAMAHA XVS650 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 979 YAMAHA XVS650 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of YAMAHA XVS650 was highest during 2009 Q2 (1,891). The number taxed topped out in 2008 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 209 (11%) YAMAHA XVS650 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q4 the number of YAMAHA XVS650 that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of YAMAHA XVS650 has fallen by 19. Licensed models have fallen by 431 and the SORNed total has increased by 412.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 33 YAMAHA XVS650 models. Taxed models have declined by 217 and the SORNed total has increased by 184.

58% of the remaining 1,682 YAMAHA XVS650 in the UK are currently off the road.
