Today I'm sharing five of the most common reasons why I choose to walk away from a used motorcycle. That is, five deal breakers. Keep in mind this is coming from the perspective of someone who enjoys buying and selling motorcycles on the side as a hobby. With that being said, most of the bikes I buy will eventually be sold. So, I'm always looking at how easy, or difficult, it will be to sell. I try to avoid bikes with any kind of issues, especially the following: bad tires, super high miles, restored/salvage titles, oil leaks, and weird engine noises. What makes you walk away from a used motorcycle deal?

What are some reasons you walk away from used moto deals?

@soorajsaikumar 5 лет назад

Sometimes the gear box will be f'ed up, and after buying the motorcycle only we ill find out that their is an issue. Second reason is the sellers, their attitude towards the buyer and their non-negotiable price tags

@codyfischer7888 5 лет назад

Something I always look for when buying a car or motorcycle... the persons house, yard, and other vehicles. If I see a clean yard/ house / other Car/ Bike, it tells me the seller understands proper upkeep. If I see a bunch of rust buckets in the driveway or overgrown grass and weeds, it tells me the person is probably lazy and didn’t do proper maintenance/ care on the vehicle. Speaking of leaky oil, always good to take a peak at the oil and air filters if possible. I’ve seen some dirt bikes with really low oil levels and some where it looks all gummed up, typically paired with dirty air filters. Gotta walk from those.

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

All great points! I hate to judge a book by its cover, but I tend to make the same observations. Lol.

@Larrymopac 4 года назад

I think number one thing to check is open the oil fill cap when the bike is running. Check for smoke blow by and take a small water bottle with a spray nozzle and wet the exhaust headers to see if all cylinders are working. It should evaporate immediately.

@debbieriley9303 3 года назад

You brought up some great valid points. I always take my x .lol who knows the major as well as minor thing that could b wrong on a bike....It sucks to go for a great bike ..decent miles looks awsum only to find out it is a definite problem to deal with.. however this little bites that you get that you would think for the price they would be something wrong and they end up being excellent bikes for the price so basically it's good to just to just take someone who knows enough about bike to let you know whether you're getting your money's worth how are you getting a fantastic deal or whether to stay totally away from the by completely but the advice you gave is grade common knowledge that people should know regardless of whether they have some wrong with the Menard those are five break points that I would consider as well

@jaredjerrell 2 года назад

@paulvelez9688 2 года назад

Awesome videos man. A common deal breaker for me is I show up and something is wrong with the bike that wasn’t listed, like the bolt with the engine light. If you’re leaving that out, what else are you trying to hide?

@jpetrik144 5 лет назад

Jon... once again great video my man. Would be very interested to hear you expand your thinking on this into some brand specific concerns as far as resale goes. For example, if you encounter an issue on a Harley, given the same amount of profit margin on the back end, are you more apt to ignore certain things due to the ease of resale on them opposed to some imports? I hope that makes sense. Thanks again man!

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

Thanks, brotha! That's an interesting one. I try to avoid anything that will be a headache to me when it comes to selling the bike. I guess it really comes down to price. If the price is right, I'll look past certain things and just sell the bike as-is at a steep discount, and disclosing the current condition. I'm just not a fan of spending time wrenching and/or taking em to the shop and waiting on repairs.

@jpetrik144 5 лет назад

@longbeachgary 5 лет назад

A thing that people should be wary of when buying used are - Title and registration not in the name of the person selling you the bike. Usually means that person selling never transferred title and registration to their name. You as the new buyer may wind up having to pay fees and penalties in order to get the bike registered. In some cases, the name of the person selling the bike may not even be known to you. Can be a big hassle.

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

For sure! I like going to third party DMV's where you can two care of the title transfer right there on the spot.

@davidpeterson943 5 лет назад

@rockbay79 2 года назад

I've been buying and selling motorbikes for over 40 years. It has always been a "Side-hustle" for me. A way to make extra money. I have found three "conditions" that make for a Super Deal. What are these conditions? They are Death, Divorce or a New Baby! Someone dies and the family no longer needs the bike. A Divorce and typically the Wife wants the bike gone! And finally, an unexpected pregnancy will provide for a good deal. I seldom review older bikes or damaged bikes, because they take longer to sell. I always liked quick turn overs like a week or so. I've yet to buy a bike I could not sell at a profit.

@FranBunnyFFXII 5 лет назад

I obviously dont do the whole motorcycle used and resell thing like you do but in terms of why I only want to buy a brand new bike? Because when it comes to used you never know who did what to the bike over their milage. I just can't trust other people. You never know what someone might be hiding. Me I'm only looking at new bikes, sure they're way more expensive, but I'm willing to pay the cost so that I can get something I know was handled properly before being 2nd handed. You can't tell if someone caused a problem in waiting during the breakin period. You can never tell if someone tinkered with things they shouldn't have or skipped on an oil change or something liek that. I just dont want to inherit someone's problem bike. If its new, I don't have to deal with any of that, if there's an issue, "BAM WARANTY, fIxit." I'll be able to break in the bike properly like the manual says. Ill be able to change the oil with the oil that I want to have and the filter I want, and not worry about someone who maybe got lazy. The whole used bike thing is too sketchy for me.

@nonofyourbusiness7631 5 лет назад

Buy smart and your fine. Compression test. Inspect carefully.

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

There are definitely pros and cons to buying both new and used. I can see the appeal to buying new, especially if you plan to keep the bike long term/forever (and can afford it).

@getoffmygrass6974 5 лет назад

@@nonofyourbusiness7631 Not sure about how many people are going to let you compression test their motorcycle but if you can and have the patience and time then for sure do it! Open V twins like my Buell would be pretty easy but my first Gen R6 would take some doing, not hard but i wouldn't let anybody strip my bike down to do a leak or compression test on a used bike, would save a lot of headaches for buyers though if we did it every time.

@saddle8bag 5 лет назад

Guess you won't be buying my high mileage bikes. Just have to run em into the ground I guess. As to salvage, I wouldn't be so quick to blow them off. There was a shop in town where I had my bike in for service. The service dept just happened to catch on fire while it was there, so I got a check. The service dept was concrete walled off from the rest of the dealership, but afterward, the whole place was smoky. Every bike in their showroom got salvage titled. I saw one of them on Ebay in Kansas, I'm in Ohio. Imagine scoring a brand new Duc for less than half price because it was in a smoky room. Deal of the century!

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

There can always be exceptions. Lol.

@getoffmygrass6974 5 лет назад

That would be sweet, if you don't mind the fact that if you wreck the bike you won't get a dime for it but I'd personally take that chance on a brand new Duc. Pretty Sure all Warranties would be non existent at that point also but whatever.

@saddle8bag 5 лет назад

@getoffmygrass6974 5 лет назад

Here in Massachusetts if your tires are over 5 years old no matter condition they fail. All solid reasons Jon. 1- I'm huge on the chain if it has one. If that isn't taken care of then you know basic routine maintenance hasn't been done, from there it's looking at all fluids, you'd be surprised with what people try to get away with. 2- Warm engine- they warm up the bike before you see it. 3- Mileage doesn't match title, people think they are slick, kid tried pulling this on me, still bought the bike but for half the asking price ,he thought he was trying to be slick, little did he know the numbers didn't match on the engine and it was swapped out but served him right for playing stupid. He even transported it to my house dead winter and snow on the ground for me because he felt bad 4- Kid or new rider selling bike ( very rarely unless it's an adult middle aged trying something new ) 5- Not being honest ( unless it's too good to pass up ) ...stay cool Jon and keep em coming

@JonsMotoGarage 5 лет назад

All great points! I once went to look at a gsxr 1000. The bike was beautiful and ad said it had only 9k miles, which checked out with the odometer.Then, I take a look at the title and it says 80,000 miles. I pointed it out to the dude and he was floored. He honestly had no idea. The dmv had messed up and added an extra zero. The dude was able to go through some rigamoro with the dmv and get it corrected, but it was a huge headache.

I have a chopper with an evo motor in it and the title says 0 miles and there is no speedometer on the bike so I have no idea how many miles are on it. So sadly I'm probably never going to sell it except for a really low price, truth is though there aren't very many miles on it I'd be shocked if there were even 5000 on the thing. Here in Oregon where I live the only thing you need on a motorcycle to get it licensed is a headlight and a brake light. Nothing else is required.

@scottheath7405 5 лет назад

I would say you are absolutely right on weird noises and absolutely NO salvage/rebuilt titles.That just creates a bad reputation about you as a seller. Mileage and tires wouldn't be a deal breaker for me and actually is a solid negotiating point.You can roll back your price some by telling the seller that the miles are high or it needs tires.You may not be feeding your family with what you make turning bikes but you owe it to your business to buy them as good as you can.Remind your sellers that you are paying in CASH,that's a big deal today.The last thing that would scare me is condition or maintenance. You have definitely looked at some stuff that wasn't cared for. People will pay you better for a bike that's clean and well maintained.

I live up north in WA. I look at a lot of Harleys on Craigs list and they sit and sit and sit. low miles right year,perfect shape and reasonable price. I am an older rider and I remember in the 70's and 80's I could buy a bike sell it for more than I got it for and they never took more than a week to sell. Being older 66 has another drawback in the market up here, If I were to kick off all of a sudden I wouldn't want my wife to have to deal with it. Jon sounds like a rare guy these day's he has a conscience like myself I don't want to con anybody about things that may be wrong with the bike. I am not a used car sales man LOL.

Bikes with shoddy maintenance records

@cosmiccharlie8294 5 лет назад

Most people change the oil themselves. I don't expect to see records on that. But major scheduled service it's nice to see a receipt from a mechanic. My DL1000A had a recall on the ecu and it had about 14K on it so I had the dealer change out the fork oil and brake fluid and also check the valves and put new plugs in. That is a nice receipt to have.

Maintenance records are always a plus!
