2014 Husqvarna Fe

CarHunch analysed 130 real MOT records for the 2014 Husqvarna Fe. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2014 Husqvarna FE passes its MOT first time at 85.2%, which is meaningfully better than the UK average of 80%, suggesting these bikes are generally well-maintained and reliable. The dangerous defect rate of 10.8% is moderate and not a major concern for prospective buyers.

These are lightly-used machines with a median mileage of just 2,470 miles—typical for a niche dirt bike that may see seasonal or weekend use rather than daily commuting. Owners encounter around one failure and three advisories per test on average, pointing to minor wear items rather than systemic problems. When shopping for a used example, verify service history and check the condition of wear-prone consumables like brake pads and chains, since the low mileage means some bikes may have sat unused for stretches.

What to check before buying a 2014 Husqvarna Fe

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.
