Worried about selling my bike..

Featured Replies

Hey guys n gals,

Looking to sell my bike because a new job has come up which means I'll be away from home too much.

Would like to advertise it now, as I won't be back until Sept at the earliest. It's just sitting at my house, albeit on a battery tender.

The thing is, you read so many stories of bikes being stolen on test rides, I'm worried about leaving it to my wife to sell.

Of course I could just tell her no test rides, it is after all a good as new machine with 5000km on the clock, but that might put some people off.

Any thoughts, suggestions ?

Bike in question below..

Yup, I guess that is the only way really.. Even ID and passports can be fakes, just like the guy that had the Z1000 away in CM.

Papa don't want a big bike :)

I'd offer to watch her for you, but I'm usa this summer.

New tires for my KLR650, then...

Colorado beware.

She's fine where she is but pointless when someone else could be riding it. This job is gonna take up way too much time :(

Just say no test rides. A bike with that little klm on it shouldn't worry a serious buyer.

You can also sell it through Bigwing where you'll have zero trouble but of course they'll take their (good) cut.

I've banged in an ad on baht sold, stating no test rides without full price deposit. Hope that does it... Really sad to have to sell it !!

no test ride - no sale..

who the hell would buy a bike if the seller had such an atitude...

i bought a s/h bike today...came on my scooter, left the scooter with the keys in...toop the bike for sale round the block....at no time did the seller say anything about me not riding his bike.....

It's just as well that thousand baht notes can't be faked.

I never said no test rides ! But no test ride without full payment deposit in advance... No attitude just being careful..
