2017 Harley Davidson Pro Street Breakout 1801 17

CarHunch analysed 105 real MOT records for the 2017 Harley Davidson Pro Street Breakout 1801 17. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2017 Harley Davidson Pro Street Breakout is a remarkably reliable performer, passing its MOT on the first attempt 96% of the time—16 percentage points above the UK average of 80%—with dangerous defects appearing in just 2.9% of the cohort, well below concern threshold. The low average failure rate of 0.29 per vehicle underscores how few structural or safety issues plague this model.

The median mileage of 6,799 miles suggests these are cherished machines that spend more time being polished than ridden, which naturally helps explain the exceptional pass rate. The 3.0 advisories per vehicle reflect minor wear items typical of air-cooled cruisers—brake pads, fluid checks, corrosion—rather than systemic design flaws, so when shopping used, focus your inspection on whether the owner has actually maintained it rather than gambling on unknown service history.

What to check before buying a 2017 Harley Davidson Pro Street Breakout 1801 17

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
