Are you a Bike lover? I am, I enjoy the wind blowing past me when I'm out for a ride, I've had people tell me that driving in a convertible was similar, but to me it just didn't give me the same umph. If you're in the market for a new motorcycle then I recommend you take the time to read this entire article, it could save you a few thousand dollars on this next big purchase you're thinking of making.
It's no secret that when you purchase a new car, truck, van, motorcycle, boat, or even and RV the value drops significantly as soon as you drive it off the dealers lot. It's some what frustrating, because in todays market place with ever increasing living expenses and everything else it can be hard to afford the bike you want, and even more difficult to come out ahead should you need to sell it before it's paid off entirely.
There's a some what secret source for purchasing next to new vehicles including bikes. Every day across the country the Government, Police, and other organizations are seizing peoples vehicles due to their involvement in illegal activity. These motorcycles, cars, and trucks are stored usually at Government owned storage facilities costing money to maintain, staff, heat etc. It would be impossible to hold onto all of these pieces of equipment forever so what happens to them? Rest assured very few if any end up at the scrap yard, they want to attempt to make some of their expenses back that have been accumulated in storage, handling, and repossession.
This is where the 'secret' comes in. Every day, week, month, and year there are repo auctions taking place right under your nose where these organizations auction off repo motorcycles, and other vehicles at a fraction the cost of a new one. Of course, most of these aren't new but some are the next best thing being only a model year or two old.
Not many people are aware but any one can attend these auctions and bid on the merchandise that is up for sale. What does this mean to you? Well lemme tell you if you're considering purchasing a new motorcycle hold on just a minute and give yourself a chance to buy almost new for a drastic discount.
How do you find the auctions?
There are services online that help you locate vehicles that are available for auction in your area. As well often times there will be advertisements in news papers and sometimes even on TV or radio stating a seized auction will be taking place. A little research a head of time will go a long way in helping you find the bike of your dreams or should I say a diamond in the rough.
