2019 Harley Davidson Flhr Road King 1745 17 1.7L Petrol · RU60 HOG

This Harley-Davidson FLHR Road King shows a stable roadworthiness trend, having passed its most recent MOT test on 6 February 2026 with no defects recorded. The absence of advisories or failings in the single available MOT entry suggests the vehicle met all DVSA standards at that time. However, the test date is now over six months out of date, placing it beyond the 12-month validity window. This delay alone raises questions about the owner’s commitment to maintaining compliance with UK roadworthiness regulations, particularly for a vehicle with such unusually low mileage. The recorded mileage of 672 miles over approximately seven years—roughly 96 miles annually—indicates either minimal use or prolonged periods of inactivity. Such low mileage is atypical for a motorcycle of this age and suggests potential neglect of basic maintenance, including fuel stability, battery health, and tyre pressure consistency. The lack of intermediate MOT tests or service records further complicates assessing long-term wear on components like suspension bushes, chain tension, or throttle response, which can degrade even with minimal use due to static stress or environmental exposure. Given the sparse MOT history, an in-person inspection should prioritise critical consumables and structural elements. The tyres, despite low mileage, should be checked for uneven wear, cracking, or embedded debris, as prolonged storage can accelerate deterioration. The battery, if the motorcycle has been stationary for extended periods, may require testing for residual capacity, while the chain and sprockets should be examined for rust or stretch—common issues even with minimal use. The suspension components, particularly the rear shocks and front forks, warrant inspection for fluid leaks or degraded rubber bushes, as these can degrade passively over time. Finally, the frame and fuel system should be scrutinised for corrosion or fuel degradation, given the vehicle’s age and the lack of documented maintenance.
