How To Buy a Used Motorcycle
By Walter F. Kern
New riders should always start out with a used bike until they get trained and get plenty of practice spread over perhaps a year. Here are some ways to get that bike.
Here's How to Buy a Used Motorcycle:
- Buying a bike from an Internet auction is the newest way to buy. The most popular service is eBay.
- Every newspaper has motorcycle want ads. You probably won't have far to travel to see the bike. It will be easy to have a local mechanic check out the bike before you buy it.
- There are many Web sites that offer free want ads for motorcycles.
- Always tell your friends that you are looking to buy. Someone may know someone else who has a bike for sale.
- If you belong to a motorcycle club, announce to the members that you are looking for another bike. Since any bike you buy from a club member will be well known to you, you stand to get a good value.
- You're probably going to be visiting your local dealer anyway so look for good trade-ins. Mention to the salepeople that you are looking for a certain kind of bike. They may work to find a bike for you.
