2002 Harley-Davidson XL 1200 C Custom Sport 1.2L Petrol · LY02 TXL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass in its most recent inspection in April 2026 at 8,407 miles. The history indicates that the mechanical and safety components are currently meeting the minimum legal standards. While a failure was recorded in October 2024, the immediate re-test pass on the same day suggests the identified issue was minor and rectified quickly rather than representing a pattern of chronic mechanical neglect. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 350 miles per year. Data shows a significant usage gap between November 2022 and November 2023, where the vehicle covered only 1,373 miles in over twelve months. This low frequency of operation suggests that wear on the drivetrain and engine components is minimal. However, the long intervals between tests and the low annual mileage indicate the bike likely spends extended periods standing stationary, which can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid quality regardless of low mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by long-term storage rather than high-mile wear. Check for dried-out brake lines, seized calipers, and perished seals in the fork suspension which are common on low-use motorcycles. Inspect the tyres for age-related cracking and sidew rot, as tread depth may remain sufficient despite the rubber failing. Given the age of the vehicle, examine the frame for corrosion around the mounting points and exhaust bolts to ensure the structural integrity has not been compromised by moisture during inactivity.
