There are some tidy looking bikes, this for example:

Bonhams YZF750

Annoying that they never seem to include a decent description - even mileage would be a start! Always just seems to be a paragraph or two of history of the model then a footnote saying it'll need recommissioning.

MOT check looks like it had 4k odd miles in 2011 which was it's last MOT. Does seem an odd omission from the details though as they show random pics of the bikes but don't often list mileage which is fairly key to price.

Thanks - yep, their descriptions do seem to be really inconsistent.
