When buying/selling a motorcycle what is standard etiquette?
Right now a guy is interested in one of my motorcycles. Granted he hadn't seen it yet other than pictures that I have sent. It almost seems like he's expecting to buy a newbike from his questions. I'm sure he justwantsto know what condition it is in. We've exchanged emails and probably going to arrange for him to see the bike.
Does one let a stranger take it on a test ride? Do you request/demand that cash is in hand before he goes? Do you make sure he has an endorsement? What if he drops it? How much should he be allowed to poke and prod. I have nothing to hide, but what is excessive?
Thanks,
Ken
