2004 Harley-Davidson Flhrsi Road King Custom 1.4L Petrol · MX04 HKF

This 2004 Harley-Davidson FLHRSI Road King Custom demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trajectory, culminating in a clean pass on 12 June 2025 at 47,774 miles with zero defects recorded. The preceding tests from 7 July 2022 at 40,275 miles and 5 July 2023 at 44,925 miles also resulted in unblemished passes without a single advisory. This flawless recent history points to diligent mechanical upkeep by the previous owner, yielding a machine that currently meets all statutory roadworthiness standards. The mileage accumulation aligns with a low-use profile, averaging roughly 2,172 miles per year over its twenty-two-year lifespan. Between the July 2022 test and the July 2023 test, the motorcycle covered 4,650 miles, followed by a slower accumulation of 2,849 miles leading to the June 2025 inspection. This steady cadence indicates the machine has been regularly ridden rather than left standing for prolonged periods, which helps mitigate the deterioration typically associated with dormant fuel systems and stagnant lubricants. A physical inspection should still prioritize perishable items and age-related degradation that electronic MOT tests do not capture. Potential buyers must carefully examine the brake lines, hydraulic fluid condition, and disc surfaces for pitting, alongside checking the fork seals and rear suspension units for weeping oil. Given the belt-drive system and twin-cam engine architecture, verifying the primary drive tension, checking for oil seepage at the crankcases, and inspecting tyre date codes for rubber perishing will complete a thorough assessment of this otherwise well-preserved cruiser.
