The used touring motorcycle market in the Ventura and Bakersfield, California area, has more than enough options available if you're in need of a certain touring motorcycle model. For more information, visit our location in Santa Maria, California, serving Ventura and Bakersfield, California.
 

1. Watch Out for Stolen Bikes

If you have ever stepped into a pawn shop in Ventura or Bakersfield, California, to sell or pawn a motorcycle, car, or golf cart, the first thing they will check is the VIN (vehicle identification number). This is because a VIN is going to tell the buyer if the item is stolen or not. So, while looking around the various touring motorcycle dealers or independent sellers in the Ventura and Bakersfield, California, area, always check this information first to ensure that you are not purchasing a stolen motorcycle. Anyone can do this by simply entering the number into the National Insurance Crime Bureau website. Note that you should also look for an attempt from the seller to hide or change the VIN.
 

2. Investigate the Wires

While looking at touring motorcycles, it is recommended that you lift up the seat and look at the wiring within it. You just want to make sure that all the wiring is there and in good condition. If you see frayed or messy wires, this may be an indication that there are other problems with the motorcycle that the seller may not be telling you about. The last thing you want to deal with is an electrical issue while touring the country with your motorcycle.
 

3. Always Insist on a Test Ride

The fact is that there is never a good reason for a seller to refuse a test ride request. Even if all the requirements have been checked and met, it's never a good idea to sign off on a sale if there has not been a test ride.
