Know the history
Buying used isn’t like buying new, in that owners will not be getting a warranty with their bike. iainmutch.com can provide you with a comprehensive warranty. When it comes to buying from a private seller, it is important to get an inspection of the bike, ask for maintenance records and see if the seller offers any resistance to such requests. Avoid purchasing from sellers who cannot provide the details needed to make an informed purchasing decision. Buying from a private seller may not offer any protection to a bike owner. iainmutch.com will give you this protection.
Some people who are thinking of buying used are willing to get a used bike from a Harley-Davidson seller for a little extra assurance no outstanding repairs need to be made on a bike. At iainmutch.com we give you this assurance.
