Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a modern, low-mileage Sportster S. The clean MOT history and very low mileage suggest a vehicle that has seen minimal road use since its 2022 registration.
Given the very low mileage of 3,912 miles, your primary focus should be on ensuring the motorcycle has been stored in a suitable environment to prevent tyre flat-spotting or battery degradation. Check the tread depth on the tyres, as low-mileage bikes can sometimes suffer from age-related rubber hardening even if the tread looks deep.
Since the MOT records do not provide details on servicing, ask the seller for evidence of any scheduled maintenance or inspections performed by a Harley-Davidson specialist. For a high-performance 1252cc engine, verifying that oil changes and fluid checks have been conducted according to the manufacturer's schedule is essential, regardless of the low mileage.
Running costs for this 1252cc petrol model will be higher than a standard commuter motorcycle. You should factor in premium fuel requirements and the higher insurance groups typically associated with high-performance Harley-Davidson models.
Maintenance costs for a bike of this age are generally predictable, but parts and specialist labour for the Sportster S can be more expensive than for traditional cruisers. Expect an annual running cost that accounts for periodic servicing, insurance, and fuel, depending on your annual mileage.
With no defects recorded in the 2025 or 2026 MOT tests, there are no specific mechanical failure patterns to highlight from the history. However, you should perform a thorough visual inspection of the Black finish for any scratches or storage damage.
Check the electrical components and the digital interface, as these are central to the modern Sportster S experience. Additionally, inspect the chain or drive system for any signs of corrosion or lack of lubrication, which can occur on vehicles that are ridden infrequently.
This 2022 Harley-Davidson Sportster S 22 is a relatively recent registration in Black, showing significantly low mileage for its age. With only 3,912 miles recorded at its last MOT in February 2026, it has covered far less than the typical annual average. The MOT history shows two consecutive passes with no defects recorded, providing a clean baseline for its initial years on the road.
There is currently no aggregate MOT data available to provide a statistical reliability profile for the Harley-Davidson Sportster S 22.
