Performance

There isn’t one type of performance that suits all powersports vehicles or riding enthusiasts. Some models, even within the same group of vehicles, handle a little differently, which is why you’ll want to evaluate how the machine runs. 

You’ll have two goals here: first, you’ll want to make sure that riding is enjoyable and easy for you. Second, you’ll want to make sure its pre-owned status hasn’t affected how it runs. All powersports vehicles, no matter how gently used, are a little worn. A little wear isn’t a big deal, but too much wear can make for a bad investment. Always ask to test drive a model before making any decisions.

Budget and Value

Even though you’ll be saving money on the price, it’s still important to set a budget. Used powersports vehicles vary widely in price, so knowing what range you’re working with can help narrow down your options. Don’t forget that part of the budget needs to include expenses outside of the machine, like any necessary registration, fuel, maintenance, and gear.

History and Inspection

Once you start narrowing down your options, you’ll want to get serious about how you look at the models you’re interested in. Just because it looks nice, doesn’t mean there aren’t some problematic secrets underneath. Perform a thorough inspection of what you have available right now, and take note of every problem you encounter, no matter how small. This can give you a bigger picture at the end of the inspection. You can also hire a professional technician to perform their own checks and look for things you might have missed. 

Finally, ask for maintenance records and accident reports from the seller. Knowing how a used model was (or was not) cared for by the previous owner can give you a glimpse into what you can expect as the new owner.
