2016 HARLEY DAVIDSON XL 1200CX ROADSTER

KEY FACTS

• With little more than running-in mileage, this Harley combines ‘dark custom’ styling and pared back mudguards as an interpretation of the café racer form.
• The Roadster uses a fuel-injected, air-cooled, 1202cc pushrod 45-degree V-twin, coupled to a five-speed manual gearbox. Lightweight aluminium heads and cylinders improve air-cooling efficiency.
• The bike has only one previous keeper, and has been garaged and used sparingly since 2016.

EQUIPMENT AND OPTIONS

• This Roadster is finished in metallic red paintwork with a perforated black seat. The ‘dark-custom’ theme is evident from the blacked-out motor, black upside-down forks, black heat guards on the exhaust, and 18-inch front and 19-inch rear cast spoke wheels in gloss black paint.
• Factory specification includes ABS disc brakes front and rear, and adjustable rear shocks.
• The vendor has fitted a Harley-Davidson side-mount plate kit and smoked front signal lenses, with this work undertaken by the Guildford main dealer.
• The bike is complete with its owner and service manuals, and two keys.

CONDITION

• The vendor reports no damage to the frame or body.
• The metallic red paintwork is described as being in excellent condition, with only a small stone chip to the rear guard noted.
• The perforated seat is also in excellent order displaying no visible signs of wear, commensurate with the very low mileage.
• There are no known faults.
• The most recent MOT test was conducted on 6 October 2020; a first-time pass with no advisories.

SERVICE HISTORY

• The vendor reports that given its limited usage, the Roadster had its first service at Harley-Davidson, Guildford in October 2020, with the odometer reading 566 miles. The engine oil and filter, spark plugs, and both key fob batteries were replaced at this time, and an invoice is present.
• The bike has also been treated to a new battery and kept garaged on a CTEK trickle charger between uses.

SUMMARY

An extremely low-mileage example of the imposing Harley-Davidson XL 1200CX Roadster; this is a collector-quality bike that is also in fine mechanical condition. Powered by a 1202cc air-cooled V-twin motor and with a stripped-back appearance, this Sportster would make an ideal companion to cruise through the summer months in style.
