2015 Harley-Davidson Flstf 1.7L Petrol · JA62 FAT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean MOT pass in March 2026 at 12,435 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory after a period of instability between 2024 and 2025. While the previous two years revealed multiple mechanical and lighting failures, the absence of defects in the most recent inspection indicates that the owner addressed the previously flagged issues to bring the motorcycle back to passing standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 1,130 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap between the March 2024 test at 10,753 miles and the March 2025 test at 11,407 miles, representing only 654 miles covered in a full year. This suggests the vehicle sits for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and fluid quality despite the low mechanical wear recorded. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the front wheel bearing, which was flagged as rough during the March 2025 test at 11,405 miles. Although it passed the subsequent test, bearings that show early wear at low mileage often indicate internal corrosion from stagnant oil. The exhaust system also requires scrutiny, as it was noted as noisy in three consecutive tests between 2024 and 2025, suggesting a potential mounting bracket issue or a loose internal baffle that may not have been fully rectified. Additionally, the rear brake pads were near the minimum limit in 2025, so the current friction material should be verified to ensure they were replaced following that failure.
