Why Buy a Used Motorcycle?
Choosing to purchase a bike can be a thrilling experience, but before you get too far along in the buying process, there are a few important factors to keep in mind. One of the biggest decisions you will need to think about early on is whether or not to buy a used motorcycle. Like all decisions, there are pros and cons that come with used bikes, and educating yourself on all of these pros and cons will go a long way in forming an educated purchasing decision.
Here at The Cycle Exchange with locations in Ledgewood and Andover, NJ, we've compiled some information about the different elements of buying a used motorcycle and what you can generally expect with your purchase. We proudly serve the areas of Ledgewood, Andover, Morristown, and Newark, NJ as well as Philadelphia and Allentown, PA, and New York City.
Big Savings
The first and most obvious reason for choosing a used motorcycle is the potential for big savings and better "bang for your buck" deals. This is largely due to depreciation which happens to assets over time and doesn't necessarily reflect the actual value of the asset. What this means is that a motorcycle can still be operating at peak performance but be valued at a lower price due to being a few years old. Not only that, but the biggest drop in depreciating value occurs in the first few years of ownership meaning when you buy a used bike, you have the opportunity to skip the depreciation period. The result is getting a used motorcycle you want without breaking the bank.New Rider Benefits
While riders of all experience levels will see benefits from choosing a used motorcycle, those who are new to riding may benefit even more. Mistakes happen, even more so when you are inexperienced on the road, and that's why dinging up your used motorcycle will be a lot less financially and emotionally straining than if you had chosen a newer option. You must always exercise caution on the road especially when you are operating heavy machinery, but making small mistakes will have less of an impact in the grand scheme of things.Another pro of choosing a used bike when having less experience with motorcycles is the fact that you are still figuring out what you like and don't like. Making an investment with less of a financial impact will give you the opportunity to find your ideal components in a bike without being strapped in for an extended period of time. With that being said, we strongly urge you to treat your purchase with the utmost sincerity and to do your due diligence in your pre-purchase research. However, sometimes you don't know what you like until you try it, and used bikes are a great way to try out different things without paying for it literally and figuratively.
