2016 Harley-Davidson PRO Street Breakout 1801 17 1.8L Petrol · SP10 DAS

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 3 July 2026 with no defects or advisories recorded. Looking at the longitudinal history, the maintenance trend appears stable, although there was a persistent recurring advisory regarding exhaust noise between 2020 and 2024. The absence of advisories in the two most recent tests suggests that these concerns have been rectified or the vehicle is now meeting the required noise thresholds. With a recorded mileage of 14,986 miles over a ten year period, this motorcycle has been used sparingly, averaging approximately 1,499 miles per year. While low mileage generally indicates less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, such a low annual usage rate often suggests long periods of inactivity. This pattern increases the risk of degradation related to standing, such as fluid oxidation and the perishing of rubber components, rather than wear from active operation. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the recurring exhaust noise advisories. During a test drive, listen for excessive popping, rattling, or leaks at the manifold and silencer joints, as these can indicate failing gaskets or poor-quality aftermarket modifications. Additionally, the 2022 advisory regarding fluctuation in front brake effort warrants a thorough check of the braking system. Ensure there is no shuddering through the handlebars during deceleration and verify that the brake lever feel is firm and consistent, which would rule out binding calipers or air trapped in the hydraulic lines. Given the low mileage and age, physical inspection must focus on calendar-based degradation. Check the tyre sidewalls for fine cracking or perishing, as tyres can become unsafe due to age even if the tread depth remains legal. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the calipers move freely. The 12V battery should be tested for health, and the service history should be scrutinized to ensure oil and other fluids have been changed according to time intervals rather than just mileage. Finally, examine all chrome and exposed metalwork for signs of pitting or corrosion resulting from prolonged storage in damp conditions.
