2016 Harley Davidson XL 883 L Superlow 17 0.9L Petrol · AF66 YGP

The 2016 Harley Davidson XL 883 L Superlow 17 presents a stable roadworthiness status with no recorded defects across its four most recent MOT tests. The May 2025 test at 11,152 miles passed clean, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since 2022. The maintenance trend is steady with no worsening or recurring advisory patterns in the official record. Annual mileage sits at roughly 1,115 miles per year against a ten-year-old machine, a low figure that points to light use or extended standing periods. The records show 8,984 miles in January 2022, 9,703 miles in February 2023, 10,387 miles in May 2024, and 11,152 miles in May 2025. Gaps between tests are minor and the accumulation is consistent at around 700 to 800 miles yearly. No rapid build-up or suspicious jumps appear in the DVSA data. A clean MOT sheet does not exempt the buyer from physical inspection. Low-use motorcycles of this age commonly develop hardened suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and surface corrosion on the frame or exhaust where moisture has settled during storage. The tester raised no advisories on brake discs, calipers, or structural integrity, yet standing time can mask binding calipers and degraded fork seals not visible on a pass certificate. Prospective owners should confirm tread depth and sidewall condition on both tyres, check for weeping fork oil, and inspect the chain and sprockets for rust or tight links. Verify the battery holds charge after idle and listen for abnormal drivetrain noise on a road trial. The documentary history implies conscientious basic upkeep, but in-person checks remain essential on a low-mileage ten-year-old machine.
