Hi All I've been trying to sell my motorbike (Suzuki GSX650F '09) and have recently listed it both on Autotrader and Ebay Classified but without much interest. Has anyone used any of these 'We want your bike' or 'We buy any bike' websites? Do they offer a decent price or do you generally have to sell for a lot less than you would get privately? Any advice is appreciated as I don't want to give my bike over without getting a fair price! Thanks in advance.

We buy any car and cunds- offered me 2.5k for my civic and managed to sell it for 5k on ebay.

Do you remember how much they were for your Civic?

While we are on the topic, anyone know a good bike to buy as a first bike to learn on. Have a bit extra this month and want to do my CBT and get riding?

don't use we buy any bike. They give you one cost then when they turn up try to get it for cheaper. I'm looking at getting a second bike at the moment. But, most people want stupid prices for 15 year old Bandit 600's Put it on ebay and set a slightly over price on the bike but say you're willing to take offers. But again make sure you let people know its not going to be given away.

Yamaha ybr125, a Honda cg125 if you can find one. Cbt course will provide the bike for an extra 20 quid and it will most likely be a Suzuki van van or aforementioned ybr. If your a big chap check out a Honda varadero 125, they look like a proper big bike for a 125. Avoid cheap Chinese models at all costs and start with one of the big 4 Japanese manufacturers
Nope it's not my name |
