2007 Harley-Davidson FLHRSE3 1.8L Petrol · JC07 DJC

The 2007 Harley-Davidson FLHRSE3 presents a stable roadworthiness status with no recorded defects across its four most recent MOT tests. The August 2025 test at 20,405 miles passed cleanly with no advisories, continuing an unbroken pass sequence that shows the machine has been maintained to a standard that satisfies annual inspection requirements. Recorded mileage confirms exceptionally light use for a nineteen-year-old vehicle. The tests show 18,315 miles in July 2022, 19,515 in June 2023, 20,165 in August 2024, and 20,405 in August 2025. That equates to roughly 1,074 miles per year, with the largest single-year movement being 1,200 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests. No gaps exceed thirteen months and the progression is linear, indicating steady low-volume riding rather than storage followed by heavy use. A clean MOT history with no flagged corrosion, brake, suspension, or structural defects suggests the previous keeper addressed wear before each test. However, low mileage combined with age means rubber components such as suspension bushes, fork seals, and tyre sidewalls may have degraded through time rather than abrasion. The buyer should physically inspect for perishing, weepage, and hidden structural rust beneath the fairings that a roadside test would not strip down to reveal. Given the absence of any advisories across four years, no recurring fault trend exists to track. The prudent buyer should still commission a pre-purchase inspection focused on drivetrain spline lubrication, brake caliper freedom, and fuel system condition, as these areas suffer from prolonged standing and will not appear on a standard MOT unless functionally failed.
