Problem: Article: People who email, call, or text you asking questions that are already in the ad are likely not very serious buyers. Look for buyers who ask specific questions and seem to have a basic knowledge of motorcycles. Ensure they have cash to offer before agreeing to let them look at the bike. Beware of scams, such as people who want you to ship or deliver the bike without first paying for it. Arrange to meet potential buyers at a time that works with their schedule, which may mean rearranging your own plans. It's a good idea to meet potential buyers in a public place, like a supermarket, rather than at your home. Choose a spot within walking distance of your home or office, or ask a friend to come along with their car, in case you make a sale. Some buyers will want to ride the bike in addition to inspecting it before they make a purchase. It's your decision whether or not to let them, but if you agree, you'll need to make sure they have a motorcycle license or endorsement first. They also need to wear a motorcycle helmet that's been approved by the Department of Transportation, if you're in the U.S. It's a good idea to ask test-riders for collateralholding onto a copy of their license and the amount of cash you're asking for the bike is advised. When someone shows up to look at the bike and has the right amount of cash on hand, you can finalize the deal. Be sure to shake on it and write up a bill of sale that includes the new owner's name and contact information. Remove the license plate and keep the registration card for the bike. Provide the new owner with the keys, the title to the motorcycle, and any other pertinent documents (like the manual or maintenance records). Be sure to let the buyer know that the deal is final, and you aren't responsible for any issues that may arise in the future.
Summary: Vet potential buyers. Make time to meet with potential buyers. Allow buyers to test-ride the bike, if desired. Accept the best offer.
