2015 Harley Davidson Fxdb 1.7L Petrol · AX15 PLJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of unaddressed mechanical wear. While the most recent test on 29 May 2026 at 11,916 miles passed, the motorcycle has consistently flagged a noisy exhaust across every inspection back to May 2023. This suggests that while the bike remains legal, the owner tends to perform reactive maintenance that meets minimum legal standards rather than resolving underlying component faults. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an 11-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,083 miles per year. The data shows significant intervals between tests, such as only 261 miles covered between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and 303 miles between the 2025 and 2026 tests. This low frequency of use often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals due to age and stagnation, which aligns with the recurring suspension issues noted in the record. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the rear suspension assembly. The records show a history of worn rear suspension arm ball joints and play in the swing arm pivot dating from 2023 through 2025. Although these were noted as not excessive, the recurring nature of these faults indicates that the bushings and joints are reaching the end of their functional life. The exhaust system also requires scrutiny for internal damage or loose brackets, as it has been a constant failure point for three years.
