2015 Harley Davidson FAT BOB 1.7L Petrol · C25 HDF

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 28 April 2026 with no defects recorded. Looking at the historical data, the maintenance trend appears stable, with the most recent clean pass suggesting that previous advisories have been addressed or are no longer a concern. While there were recurring notes regarding exhaust noise and brake wear in previous years, the current status indicates the motorcycle is in a roadworthy condition. With a recorded mileage of 24,984 miles over an eleven year period, the vehicle has averaged approximately 2,271 miles per year. This is considered low usage for a motorcycle of this type. While low mileage generally suggests less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often indicates periods of prolonged inactivity. Such usage patterns can lead to specific degradation issues that are not related to wear and tear but rather to the effects of standing. A recurring advisory regarding a noisy exhaust has appeared consistently since 2020. A prospective buyer should listen carefully during a test drive for any abnormal drones, popping, or audible leaks from the manifold or silencers, which could indicate failing gaskets or internal baffle degradation. Additionally, although the rear brake pads were flagged as thin in 2023 and 2024, and the front brake showed fluctuation in 2021, these should be verified. Feel for any shuddering or inconsistency in the brake lever and pedal to ensure the calipers are operating smoothly and the fluid is not contaminated. Given the low annual mileage, particular attention must be paid to age-related deterioration. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for signs of perishing or hairline cracking, as tyres can lose structural integrity over time even if the tread depth remains legal. Check the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or evidence of binding calipers resulting from long periods of standing. Finally, verify the service history to ensure that engine oil and brake fluids have been changed based on a calendar interval rather than mileage, and test the battery health to ensure it has not been depleted by inactivity.
