You have decided what type of Harley you will own and now it is time to look and buy. If your choice is a new Harley then your options are simple. Visit to your local dealer and your set. But what about an used Harley Davidson, what are your choice? When buying used be sure you know the blue book value.
Harley Davidson Dealership.
The advantage of buying a used or trade-in Harley from your local dealer is their service department has likely reconditioned the bike for sale. Dealer do not want customer dissatisfied by poor condition products and will usually do their best to deliver a quality bike that meets their standards. The down side is price. Because they are a large dealership they will have overhead and trade-in costs to factor into the sale price.
While most dealers offer financing, their rates and terms may not always be the best. Some Harley Davidson Motorcycle dealers and the banks they use will only finance a new motorcycle. One alternative is to walk into a dealership with a pre-approved check from a bank or finance company.
There are many competitive finance companies that are biker friendly and have loans for both used and new motorbike. Avoid motorcycles from auto liquidators or used car dealers unless you have a strong mechanical background to properly inspect the bike for problems. Auto dealers know nothing about motorbikes but will tell you anything for the sale.
Private seller.
Local newspaper do not always have a large selection of Harley Davidson’s to choose from if any at all. Some regions have classifieds or trader publications specifically for motorcycles. As mentioned earlier, check this motorcycles out thoroughly. Beware of those Harley for sale – cheap ads as there is usually a reason why they are so cheap. Do not believe every claim stating “because it is a Harley the bike is worth more” or “this Harley’s is rare limited edition”. Good buys can be found with patience.
Online Auctions.

The Harley for sale be half way across so unless you are will to make the trip or pay shipping it is better to do business with a seller in your area. For some people the traveling or shipping are made up for the value of the deal they can get when buying through an online auction. This form of buying a used Harley Davidson motorcycle has exploded in popularity opening up a whole new option for both sellers and buyers.
