Used Harley-Davidson® Motorcycles
When considering whether to buy a new or used Harley-Davidson® motorcycle, you have a wealth of choices available. If you’re specifically looking for a used bike, you can often find a great deal very easily, especially if you buy from a reputable dealer. The Cycle Exchange, in Andover and Ledgewood, New Jersey, has a great selection of Harley-Davidson® motorcycles, and our friendly sales team will be happy to get you on the bike of your dreams.
Why Buy Used?
Buying used can be an easy way to buy a great motorcycle and save money doing so. Depreciation on new bikes can be steep, and even after a single year, a model might drop quite a bit in price, allowing you to buy a nearly new bike at a much lower price than you’d find if you bought the same bike new. And you can use the extra cash you save to buy yourself some great gear and accessories.
New riders should definitely consider buying used. If you’re new to the motorcycle world, you might have trouble finding your “perfect fit” bike, so buying used helps reduce the upfront cost, and therefore the risk, of buying the “wrong” bike. You’ll be able to pay off your bike more quickly, and then once you’ve got some miles under your boots, you’ll learn more about what kind of bike you want to ride, and you’ll be able to trade in your first bike for your dream bike. And if you’re a new rider, you’re more likely to scrape, scratch, or drop your bike, and you’ll find that it’s less painful if you make these mistakes on a used bike.
Why Buy Harley-Davidson®?
Harley-Davidson® is the iconic American motorcycle company. You already know that. But what you might not know is that buying used is a great way to get into the Harley-Davidson® lifestyle. Because of the vast array of models, styles, and variations that Harley-Davidson® has made over the years, there’s a fantastic used market out there, and you’re very likely to be able to find exactly the bike you’re looking for.
But it’s not just about value for money - you buy Harley-Davidson® because you want to be part of a great American tradition, and to benefit from the inimitable performance and features that only this company can offer. Harley-Davidson® is known for its top quality engines built with innovation and durability in mind, giving riders peace of mind as they carve their favorite highways and byways.
If you’re looking for a classic used motorcycle, Harley-Davidson® is the way to go. For example, the Softail® is one of the company’s most iconic and classic cruiser model lines, and there is always a huge number of these bikes on the used market. Softail® motorcycles combine classic cruiser looks and style with modern technology and features for a great ride and unparalleled reputation in the motorcycle industry. Another cruiser option is the Road King®, one of Harley-Davidson®’s most iconic lines. With their v-twin-engines, stripped-down style, and modern touches, the Road King® is a great choice to buy used.
The truth is that there’s just no limit to the choices you’ll have if you look at the used market, and any bike you choose will put a grin on your face. Make sure to buy from a reputable dealer, check out each bike you’re thinking of buying carefully for dings, dents, damage, and general disrepair, and ask your dealer for a copy of the bike’s maintenance history. Take a good test ride on the bike before you buy to assure yourself it’s the right bike for you. And when you’re ready to buy, we’ll be ready to help you! Come see us at the Cycle Exchange today.
