2009 Harley-Davidson Flhr 1.6L Petrol · F9 PET

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 July 2025 at 980 miles returned no defects or advisories, mirroring the results of the previous three years. This suggests the motorcycle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum standards without recurring mechanical or structural failures during the testing process. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old machine, averaging approximately 58 miles per year over its entire life. Between the June 2022 and July 2025, the vehicle covered only 970 miles, with the most significant jump of 705 miles occurring between the July 2024 and July 2025 tests. While this low-usage pattern indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between use often lead to degradation of rubber-based parts and fluids rather than mechanical friction. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the risks associated with long-term storage rather than high mileage. Check for dry rot in the tyres, perished brake lines, and leaking seals around the forks and engine, as these components age with time regardless of distance. Inspect the fuel system for varnish or contamination and verify that the calipers are not seized due to long periods of inactivity. Ensure the brake discs are free of heavy surface corrosion or pitting which frequently occurs on vehicles that sit stationary for extended months.
