2017 HARLEY-DAVIDSON FLHTC1.7L PETROL

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by five consecutive clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 26 May 2026 at 19,206 miles resulted in no defects, indicating a stable mechanical and structural condition. This consistent history of passes suggests the previous owner adhered to basic upkeep requirements and that no significant safety-related failures have emerged over the last four years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,134 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of low use between February 2022 and September 2023, where the vehicle covered only 195 miles over nineteen months. However, there was a notable increase in usage following the 2023 test, with the bike covering 5,323 miles between the September 2023 and May 2026 inspections. While the low overall mileage reduces general wear on drivetrain components and consumables, the intervals of use suggest the bike may sit stationary for extended periods. Because the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or faults, a physical inspection should focus on issues associated with long-term storage. A buyer should check for perished rubber components, degraded fuel lines, and seized seals that can occur regardless of low mileage. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidew cracking, as tread depth does not reflect age-related rubber hardening. Additionally, verify the brake discs for corrosion and ensure the fork seals have not begun to leak after the periods of inactivity.
