AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Harley-Davidson has 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 12,927 miles. The recurring 'exhaust noisy' advisory and extremely low mileage raise serious concerns about its true condition and usage.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 1,349 miles/year, with suspiciously low readings before Mar 2017 (23 mi/yr equivalent) and before Oct 2024 (53 mi/yr equivalent), indicating potential odometer tampering or long periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • Extremely low mileage: 1,349 miles/yr average over 15 years, well below UK average (8,000 miles/yr).
  • Mileage significantly below cohort: 21,278 miles total for a 2009 HARLEY-DAVIDSON, indicating potential odometer fraud.
  • 5-year MOT history gap: No MOT recorded between May 2019 and May 2022, suggesting periods of SORN or unrecorded use.
  • Recurring 'exhaust noisy' advisory: Appeared on 4 separate MOT tests (Aug 2012, Jun 2013, Oct 2014, Oct 2024), indicating a chronic, unresolved issue.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until October 2025: Provides immediate peace of mind regarding current roadworthiness.
  • No test failures recorded: All 4 MOT tests passed without any major failures, showing no immediate safety concerns.
  • Consistent recent MOTs: The vehicle has maintained a regular MOT schedule since 2019, indicating current owner diligence.
