2006 Harley-Davidson Fxdbi 1.4L Petrol · YK06 AAZ

The 2006 Harley-Davidson FXDBI presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent MOT test on 9 May 2025 at 27,159 miles which recorded no defects. Prior to that, the 8 May 2024 test at 24,456 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the five-year record. Recorded mileage sits at 27,159 miles against an approximate 20-year lifespan, equating to roughly 1,358 miles per year. The DVSA data shows light annual use: 17,842 miles in May 2022, rising to 22,117 by May 2023, then 24,451 at the May 2024 failure and 24,456 at the pass the same day, reaching 27,159 by May 2025. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation appear. The clean pass history across all dated entries indicates the previous keeper maintained basic statutory test compliance, though the May 2024 failure with zero recorded defects points to an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than wear-related neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, fork seals, and brake calipers given the machine's age and low annual mileage, as prolonged standing promotes perished rubber and seized components unseen in MOT data. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories in the record is favourable, yet exposed twin-shock frames and exhaust mounting points warrant hands-on checks for hidden rust pitting. Given the sparse but clean history, verify the odometer against service stamps and confirm the May 2024 failure cause with DVSA, since no defect was logged. Low-mileage Harley-Davidson units often hide degraded tyres and hardened control cables; these consumables demand scrutiny despite the unblemished test trail.
