2020 Harley-Davidson Flsb Sport Glide 1745 20 1.7L Petrol · YS20 UYP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward reactive component replacement. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 15,415 miles passed, the tester flagged front brake pads approaching the minimum limit and a noisy exhaust. This follows a recurring issue with the exhaust system dating back to 2023, suggesting that while the bike remains operational, certain components are nearing attention rather than being addressed through preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old motorcycle, averaging approximately 2,570 miles per year. There is a significant usage spike between August 2023 and August 2024, where the vehicle covered over 7,300 miles in a single year after a period of relative inactivity. This surge in activity correlates with the August 2023 failure at 6,928 miles, where the rear tyre suffered from tread depth below the 1.0mm limit and contained an embedded screw. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the exhaust system due to the persistent noise reported in both 2023 and 2025, which could indicate a loose baffle, heat shield, or internal manifold corrosion. The front brake pads were noted as thin during the last inspection, so these likely require immediate replacement. Given the low annual mileage and potential periods of standing, the inspector should also check for signs of flat spotting on the tyres and corrosion on the brake discs, which often affect motorcycles that sit stationary for long durations between rides.
