What determines your Motorcycle's value?
The value of a motorcycle in Australia depends on these key factors. Understanding each one helps you price confidently and justify your asking price to buyers.
- Make, model and engine displacement (cc)
- LAMS approval status for learner-legal bikes
- Odometer and service history
- Condition of tyres, chain and sprockets
- Any aftermarket exhaust, suspension or cosmetic work
- Current registration and RWC status
Factors that push your Motorcycle's price higher
- LAMS-approved motorcycles hold resale value well due to consistent learner demand
- Popular sports bikes (600cc class) depreciate faster than adventure and touring bikes
- Harley-Davidson and BMW tourers hold value strongly in the Australian used market
- Low-km examples with service history sell for a meaningful premium over high-km equivalents
