According to Motorcycle Cruiser, one of the easiest ways to advertise your motorcycle to potential buyers is with a local paper (or its online version) that is specifically for vehicle sales. You may also want to contact a local motorcycle club, a dealership's bulletin board or a national motorcycle website. Remember to be honest in the description of your bike, says Motorbike Writer, and provide details such as the make, model, price and mileage.

Photos of your bike can be extremely important, as they're often the first opportunity to grab the attention of online shoppers. Photograph your bike against a simple background, says Motorbike Writer. To help avoid shadows and take advantage of consistent lighting, shoot the photos outside on a clear day and use the flash if needed. Photographing your motorcycle from all sides may also be a good way to highlight some of the selling points, such as the odometer and any particularly notable accessories.
