2011 Harley-Davidson Fxdf FAT BOB 1584 12 1.6L Petrol · FL61 WRT

The motorcycle presents a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 14 July 2023 at 9,540 miles with zero defects recorded. The previous test on 6 August 2022 at 9,302 miles also returned a clean pass. This indicates the machine currently meets all required roadworthiness standards without any immediate mechanical or structural advisories. The recorded mileage of 9,540 miles over a fifteen-year period equates to an average of roughly 636 miles annually, confirming exceptionally light use. Between the 2022 and 2023 tests, the machine covered only 238 miles, suggesting either very short journeys or prolonged periods of inactivity. While low mileage limits general wear on consumables like brake pads and tyres, long stationary periods can cause specific issues such as fuel degradation, seized brake calipers, and perished rubber components. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must inspect the machine thoroughly for the effects of infrequent use. Tyres displaying adequate tread depth may suffer from sidewall cracking or flat-spotting due to standing. Test the braking system for binding calipers and inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion, common on bikes left unused. Check the fuel system for stale petrol and examine the suspension bushes and drive belt for deterioration caused by prolonged static loads.
