The insurance covers for a new bike may differ from those obtained for second hand and
Used Motorbikes. Thus, you must have right information in hand, before searching for a second hand bike. There are two options in the form of a private bike owner and a dealer, from where you may access a
used bike. Here are some differences between these two options:
- The dealer must have the capability to prove that the bike is not stolen
- The dealer must have the knowledge of various consumer laws like Sale and Supply of Goods Act and Trades Descriptions Act
- You may ask for a service package as well as warranty from the dealer
- The dealer must be able to offer test ride on the motorbike, without asking for an Bike Insurance cover
It is expected from you to enquire about the parts replaced by the dealer or private owner, as it may affect your insurance cover. If you are not able to inform your insurer about modified parts and these are discovered at a later stage, you may wash your hands from a worthy insurance plan. For instance, the most commonly replaced part of the
Used Motorbike is the exhaust, due to a number of reasons like bad sound, breakage, or to improve the performance. Whatsoever, you must ensure that the new substitute complies with recommendations made by road traffic department.
