Evening guys I’m looking to sell my speed triple. Do any of you know of dealers that take bikes in other than part ex? Outstanding finance which is why I’ll attempt to avoid a private sale. Any suggestions or similar experiences will help. Cheers
Thanks for tagging him in. Yeah I’ll emailed around a few places but I’m not expecting any responses until Monday. 17 speed r with 2400 miles and eBay and auto trader are pretty split in adds
Super bike warehouse in Macclesfield purchased one of my bikes. They do try to negotiate on the price offered - but I stood my ground and the sale was completed.
Some similar are asking around 7500, some more, damaged and crashed ones are only 6700, it’s a mixture. I’ve got a few parts on which will probably have to come off
Agree - return to standard as that is what they base their offer on. I removed performance exhaust system and crash bars.
If you are only trying to sell it to a dealer and not trade it in,you will get far more from a private sale,i wished dozers dad's version was correct like i get something back,but it is always the case that i owe the HP company more than the bike is worth,so i get the early settlement figure from them,say for example £5000 and my bike is worth £4000,i make sure i have the missing £1000 in the bank,then when it sells for £4k put it in the bank with the other £1k then phone up HP company whilst new owner is there and pay it off,they send a confirmation email i give it to him with the logbook and he is on his way in the knowledge it is 100% his.Mine's on ebay [classified ads] so no bids,at the minute i have 17 time wasters [watchers] what are they waiting for?.
Ah ok, yeah I’ve got less to pay off than it’s worth now anyway. I’ve sent it around dealers last night and I’ll be listing it on eBay today. See what I can generate
Hi Troy, were are you based? I have a friend who is a dealer maybe interested. He is in essex near Stansted. Jason 01371852116.
Hi Troy92, I was at Mega Motorcycle Store in Swindon the other day and across the road from them was Blades Trade Centre. They advertise that they buy bikes, might be worth a call or visit. If you visit, I would recommend popping into Mega Motorcycle Store, it has a load of great stuff and mostly discounted off RRP. https://www.bladetradecentre.co.uk/ Good luck with your sale
I sold my last bike to Ride On in Glasgow,,got a great price with no haggling and that made buys my speed triple R so easy ,,thumbs up from me.
I’ve tried the places listed and most have replied with their only taking bikes in as px now. Thanks tho guys
