2004 Harley Davidson Flstc 1.4L Petrol · LO54 DUV

The vehicle presents a stable and positive maintenance trend, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent test on 16 April 2026 at 51,564 miles. This follows a consistent string of passes dating back to 2017, suggesting the motorcycle has been kept in a consistent state of repair. The absence of advisories in the last three years indicates that the previous owners have been proactive in addressing potential issues before they manifest as failures. The recorded mileage of 51,564 over 22 years averages approximately 2,344 miles per year, which is significantly lower than typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows steady, incremental usage rather than long periods of total inactivity. For instance, the mileage increased by 3,079 miles between the April 2024 test and the April 2025 test, and by 1,035 miles between April 2025 and April 2026. This pattern of low-intensity, regular use is generally favourable for mechanical components, though it can sometimes lead to dried seals or stagnant fluids if the vehicle sits for too long. The only recorded failure occurred in April 2016 due to non-functional offside front and rear direction indicators, a fault that was resolved during that testing period. A single minor fault regarding a noisy exhaust in May 2021 was also noted, but the subsequent clean passes suggest this was either addressed or fell within acceptable decibel limits. No issues regarding structural integrity, braking systems, or suspension components have appeared in the history. A prospective buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the electrical system to ensure the indicator circuits remain reliable, given the previous failure. Because the mileage is low, I recommend checking for signs of age-related degradation such as perished rubber hoses, cracked tyre sidewalls, or weeping fork seals. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the low annual mileage means the mechanical components have likely seen more time standing than heavy road wear.
