HOW MANY YAMAHA YZF ARE LEFT?

There are 19,206 YAMAHA YZF left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 26,450 YAMAHA YZF that are currently SORNED.

The total number of YAMAHA YZF was highest during 2019 Q3 (47,762). The number taxed topped out in 2010 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 2,106 (4%) YAMAHA YZF have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q4 the number of YAMAHA YZF 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 YZF has gained 756. Licensed models have fallen by 13,565 and the SORNed total has increased by 14,321.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 911 YAMAHA YZF models. Taxed models have declined by 5,834 and the SORNed total has increased by 4,923.

58% of the remaining 45,656 YAMAHA YZF in the UK are currently off the road.
