Hello MMMs!
Looking for ideas/suggestions.
I have an old motorbike (90s Honda Shadow - see photo) that I’ve had for ~8 years. It has been parked in the garage for the last couple of years. Overall condition is good though it may need some effort to get going again as it’s not been used for a couple of years. KBB suggests value in the range of $1500-2000 or so.
I’m not particularly interested in trying to sell it on my own for various reasons e.g. most likely will need some work to get going again, it no longer has active registration or insurance, so can’t really have people out to test it even if fixed, etc.
I did contact a couple of local bike shops that do consignment sales but didn’t get much interest. Are there any national companies ( like tred and carmax for cars) that buy motorbikes?
I’ve heard of donating vehicles and looks like some organizations like Habitat for humanity also accept motorbike donations, so that’s another idea I’m looking into.
Any other ideas/suggestions? Of course, I wouldn’t mind getting some $$ for it, but having it put to some good use would be an equally acceptable outcome.
