Hi, currently looking forward to purchase a pre owned motorcycle. Due tothe fact that i practically have 0 knowledge about motorcycle, what are the best way to ensure I won't get cheated before buying a used motorcycle? Also i do not have any friends that knows anything about motorcycle.Thank you for your suggestions!!

For what purpose are you buying a bike?
What's the budget like? I use a bike which is
now an antique...so they say. 34 year old Yamaha.
2 stroke. very good quality.solid iron all around.
Love it and use it often to go into PJ/KL during peak hours.
Pre-owned is good but get a bike mechanic to check it out.
Cant advise much cos unsure of your budget.

Will any motorshop have this kind of service?Currently I have my eyes on Kawasaki ksr110. I'm buying just to practice for about 6 months before riding a bigger bike. My budget is around RM5k.

i am not sure where u stay but there are a lot
of bike shops selling pre-owned along the NPE near to Sri Manja.
Landmark is Shell and many bike shops.When free go and scout for
a good one. Ask questions and go for a test ride.

If you are planning to go for bigger bikes . Suggest you start with a second hand bike with manual clutch.

Many in the market. Yahama FZ150, Etc. Easy maintenance and easy to sell.

The Kawasaki ksr110 is a "FUN" bike. Easy to handle and small wheels and lower CG. Not for serious commuting.

So not many buyers. SO beware. Plus Kawasaki spare parts are $$$$$. So care not to damage or get a "lemon" bike.
