2013 Harley Davidson Fxsb 1.7L Petrol · AY63 LZC

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, though the MOT history reflects a pattern of extremely infrequent use. The most recent test on 11 May 2022 at 2,307 miles resulted in a pass with a minor advisory for a nail in the rear tyre. This indicates that while the motorcycle remains mechanically viable for road use, it has not undergone a formal inspection in the nearly four years prior to the current date. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old machine, averaging approximately 177 miles per year. There is a significant temporal gap between tests, notably the four-year interval that covered only 361 miles between 1,654 miles in March 2017 and 2,015 miles in May 2018. The subsequent four-year gap between 2018 and 2022 suggests the bike sits for long periods, which limits mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension but introduces risks related to stationary storage rather than mileage-based fatigue. A buyer must physically inspect the motorcycle for signs of degradation associated with long-term storage. The 2017 test failure noted a noisy exhaust, which suggests potential heat-related damage or internal corrosion that should be checked for integrity. Given the low mileage, the priority should shift from checking wear to checking for perished rubber seals, degraded brake fluid, and tyre rot that occurs regardless of tread. Inspect the brake discs for pitting and the tyres for flat spots, as these components often de-laminate when a vehicle remains stationary for years.
