FAQs
Which documents should I check before buying a used bike?
Match the registration certificate, chassis and engine numbers; verify insurance, pollution certificate, service records, tax status, seller identity and any active finance.
How should a used motorcycle be inspected?
Use an independent qualified mechanic where possible and check cold starting, leaks, frame alignment, tyres, brakes, suspension, electrical equipment and signs of crash repair.
How is ownership transferred?
The buyer and seller must complete the applicable transport-authority process, including prescribed transfer forms, fees and any required NOC. Requirements vary by jurisdiction.
Can a used bike be financed?
Some lenders finance eligible used two-wheelers, but vehicle age, valuation, credit profile, interest rate and down-payment rules vary.

Do not pay before verifying the vehicle and seller. Compare the VIN and documents, check finance and theft records where available, inspect in person and keep a written sale agreement.
