Quick tip sheet — how to list a bike that sells

A great listing answers the buyer's questions before they have to ask. Use this checklist:

Photos

  • Take clear, well-lit pictures from every angle — both sides, front, rear, and the dash
  • Show the whole bike in daylight, not a dark garage
  • Include honest close-ups of any damage, scratches, or wear
  • Photograph the logbook (V5C) with personal details covered, if you're comfortable

Be transparent about condition

  • List any damage, scratches, dropped marks or cosmetic faults — honesty sells and saves wasted viewings
  • Say if it's been dropped, even at low speed
  • Note any warning lights or known faults

Service history & paperwork

  • State whether service history is full, partial, or none
  • Mention the last service date and mileage
  • Include MOT status and expiry date
  • Note any outstanding finance

Ownership & mileage

  • Number of previous owners (from the V5C)
  • Current mileage — and whether it'll change while listed
  • HPI clear? Say so

The basics buyers want

  • Make, model and year
  • Engine size and type
  • Mileage
  • MOT and tax status
  • Price — and whether you'll take offers
  • Location / postcode
  • Contact preference

Dealerships

List your stock the same way — clear photos, honest condition, full spec. Buyers trust dealers who are upfront. Add your dealership name and location so local riders can find you.
