Tips for Buying Your Second Motorcycle

Once you buy one motorcycle, you’ll probably find yourself wanting another! There are so many different styles and features to explore. Our team at Maxey’s Motorsports can help you expand your collection. Continue reading for a few tips to help you buy another model.

1. Think About What You Have

The first step in adding to your collection of motorcycles is evaluating what you currently have! You might find yourself wanting to add a motorcycle that is completely different from what you own now, or you might want something very similar but with newer features or something that’s more classic.

It’s definitely beneficial to take stock of the things that make you happy about your current model but to also acknowledge what’s missing. Then you’ll know what you’re looking for as you expand your collection.

2. Set a Budget

Just like buying your first motorcycle, you’ll want to set a realistic budget as you set out to buy your second model. Maybe you want to look for a pre-owned model that you can buy outright or maybe you plan to finance your purchase. Either way, you’ll want to think about the maximum amount you’d like to spend before you start looking!

3. Shop With Purpose

Finally, as you search for your next motorcycle, make sure to shop with purpose in mind. How do you use your current motorcycle and how will this additional model come into play? Will one serve as a long-distance riding bike and the other as a daily commuter? If you don’t take into account what you already own, set a budget, and think about your second motorcycle’s purpose, you might be overwhelmed with the idea of expanding your collection!
