2011 Harley-Davidson XR 1200 X Sportster 11 1.2L Petrol · AV61 HTE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test conducted in May 2025 at 11,988 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a streak of clean results since a single failure in early 2021. This indicates that the mechanical and structural components monitored by the MOT are currently operating within acceptable parameters without immediate degradation or recurring faults. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fifteen-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 800 miles per year. The data shows consistent but infrequent usage, such as the 513-mile gap between the April 2022 and 2023 tests, and another 1,577 miles between 2023 and 2025. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests suggest the vehicle may spend significant periods stationary. This often leads to age-related degradation of rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear out. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-use, high-age storage. Check for dry cracking in tyres and fuel lines, which may have perished despite the low mileage. Examine the brake calipers for seizing or pitted discs, as infrequent use can cause surface corrosion to persist. Given the failure in January 2021 at 8,909 miles, verify that the specific issue which caused that failure was properly rectified and has not begun to develop a recurring leak in subsequent years.
