Where do you start? First off, do you know what type of used motorcycle you want to buy? Do you want a cruiser, a touring bike, a crotch rocket? Perhaps a dual purpose motorcycle that you can use on both trail and street? That is the first step in buying a used motorcycle; determine the general type of riding you are most wanting to do.

Another thing to consider. Are you a novice? An experienced rider? Physically strong or weak? A biker babe or a big guy? These are decisions that I can't make for you but it's this type of decision that will largely determine your enjoyment factor over the time that you own this motorcycle. But I will say this. Don't purchase a bike that will be physically too much for you to handle; especially if you are getting up in years and the prospect of handling that motorcycle will get more difficult each year! Also....DO NOT BE IN A RUSH!! here will always be motorcycles to buy so don't feel compelled to buy the first bike that catches your fancy. A good way to get a feel of the types of styles of motorcycles that are available is to go visit your local Honda motorcycle dealer. However, I suggest you not buy from them. Not yet anyway. Overall, you will get a much better deal buying through the private sector than purchasing through a dealership. TRUST ME ON THIS. This is not a negotiable point.

Ok, once your choice of style is determined, you need to find your potential motorcycle. One of your best sources is your local newspaper, and be sure to check the newspapers also of your surrounding communities. Some of my best motorcycle deals were not purchased in my home town but in nearby towns. Also, periodicals such as your local Thrifty Nickel periodical for your town and nearby towns can be good sources. You can access most newspapers and periodicals you need to read through your computer and I know you can do this or you wouldn't be here reading this article. Right?

Ok, so now you have found a few motorcycles you want to look at. Do you know what the motorcycle is worth? What would be a good price for it? Sources such as NADA has motorcycle values available to the general public; once again just a click away on your computer. And needless to say, you are not looking to pay full retail for your upcoming purchase. Any purchaser can do that.

Ok, so you have lined up several bikes that you want to see. Time to go to the next page. You now need to figure out if this is the bike you want to purchase. See ya in a minute.

For the record, I am not a motorcycle dealer. Rather, I am an enthusiast/collector and motorcycles are a passion for me.
