Our Verdict
This 1999 Harley-Davidson FXDWG is a low-mileage, well-maintained example that should appeal to a buyer wanting a classic American cruiser. The clean MOT record over the last five years suggests it has been looked after, though a 2024 tyre wear advisory shows routine wear items need monitoring.
When viewing this black 1999 FXDWG (registration V213JMB), ask for proof of routine servicing given its age and low annual mileage, as infrequent use can hide perished seals or flat spots on tyres. Negotiate on the basis that the 2024 MOT noted rear tyre wear close to the legal limit, so budget for a replacement if it has not already been fitted since. As no model reliability aggregate exists for the FXDWG, lean on a marque specialist inspection to confirm the 1450cc engine and drivetrain are sound.
A 1450cc petrol Harley-Davidson will return modest fuel economy compared with smaller bikes, and as a pre-2001 vehicle it falls under historic vehicle tax class from April 2021, meaning zero road tax. Insurance group data is not provided, but large cruisers typically sit in higher groups; expect annual maintenance to include tyres, fluids, and chain care suited to a 26-year-old machine. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine upkeep is around £800-£1,200.
The only defect in the MOT history is the 2024 advisory for rear tyre wearing low in the centre of tread (5.2.3 (e)), so check the current rear tyre for even wear and legal depth, and confirm it was replaced after May 2024 if the seller claims recent work. Inspect the 1450cc engine for oil leaks typical of older air-cooled V-twins, and verify the black bodywork for corrosion or stone damage given the October 1999 first registration. Because no model aggregate data is available, a physical inspection of brakes, suspension, and electrics is essential before purchase.
The FXDWG presented for MOT testing in May each year from 2022 to 2026 and passed every time, with only a 2024 rear tyre wear advisory noting the centre tread was low. Recorded mileage has risen gently from 22,398 in 2022 to 24,849 in 2026, indicating limited annual use of a 26-year-old motorcycle. With no aggregate model data available, the assessment rests on this individual vehicle's history, which shows consistent care and no failures.
No aggregate MOT data is available for the Harley-Davidson FXDWG, so reliability assessment is limited to this vehicle's individual pass record.
