Used Harley-Davidson® Motorcycles For Sale Near Hartford, CT
The Benefits of Buying a Used Motorcycle
Buying a motorcycle gives you a convenient and affordable means of commuting, cruising and traveling long distances. When you shop for your first bike, though, you’ll want to decide whether you want to purchase a new or a used motorcycle.
Both types have their pros and cons, but as your Connecticut Harley-Davidson® motorcycle dealer, we’d like to make a case for used motorcycles. Harley-Davidson of Danbury is here to meet all your riding needs, so don’t hesitate to get in touch with us when you’re done reading.
1. Save Money
The primary reason why anyone buys secondhand is to save money. There’s a process that all new vehicles of any type undergo that’s called depreciation. This simply represents a sudden and steep drop in value that occurs when a new vehicle is purchased, to the tune of hundreds or even thousands of dollars. As a used motorcycle buyer, you’re bypassing that depreciation in value and obtaining a good-quality bike at a much lower and more reasonable price than the initial owner. You’ll even save money on insurance rates!
2. Get Free Upgrades
Purchasing a new bike means that you’re going to need to buy several accessories and aftermarket upgrades to customize your motorcycle the way you want it. If you shop used motorcycles, though, you can find bikes that already have the features you want installed on them, like a windshield, extra storage space, cool graphics, LED lighting and so forth. So really, you can save money two ways when you buy a secondhand bike: you’ll save on the initial purchase and then you’ll save on the upgrades you’d otherwise have to pay for yourself.
3. Learn The Ropes Without Fear
As a beginner, you may be averse to the idea of taking your new bike out for a spin only to scuff it on the curb when you try to park, marring its otherwise pristine appearance. Of course you’re going to make some mistakes while you’re learning — that’s the whole idea! But why not make those errors on a used bike that’s already got some cosmetic damage so you don’t have to be heartbroken about scrapes and dents on a brand-new model?
