Used Bike Mechanical Inspections

Postby pooches » Mon Sep 24, 2007 4:53 pm

OK, here's the scenario:

I am currently looking for a second hand trials bike - but not being mechanically minded, I would like someone to help check out a possible prospective puchase.

I have been bitten before and also heard some scary stories about people buying bikes for good money and finding out too late that they have bought a crapper.

Does anyone out there carry out used bike inspections (pre-purchase) specialising in trials bikes? (eg like NRMA, RACV, RACQ does for cars).
Obviously the trials community being a small group probably doesn't warrant this but i thought someone may know.

Happy to pay a fee for the service :D

Any help would be appreciated.

Any motorcycle shop that does service and repairs using qualified motorcycle mechanics would be able to do an inspection for you for a fee.

I would have thought the RACQ was able to do prepurchase motorcycle inspections (they do have a roadside breakdown service for bikes).
