How to photograph and sell your motorcycle or motorbike online

How to photograph and sell your motorcycle or motorbike online. In this video I share what I think is the best way to sell a motorcycle online. Making the sale is about more than just nice photographs of your motorbike!!!
This is 100% just my $0.02 on the subject. I go through the shots I like to take, the gear I like to use and my general approach to crafting ads.
Let me know in the comments what tips and tricks you like to use when you're putting bikes (or cars, or trucks, or snowmobiles) up for sale.

@8:03 ... Who else likes "orange juices?"

[@sd5458]

Thanks, like your video said in the beginning - I have sold dozens of bikes and cars in the past.
Still though I was reminded of a few tips that I had forgotten about, and your insight will help me with the bike I'm selling now.

Hey thanks for watching! This was one of my favourite but lesser viewed vids. I'm glad you found some value in it.

[@jaybird99100]

Great video Mike, well done!

Thousand + subs man I remember when you only had a handful. Don't forget us little guys now that you are famous. Gratz on the subs and great advise on selling!

[@Mike_Barker]

Thanks man! Hard to forget the early subscribers. A handful of you have been super active in the comments since the beginning too. 😃

Nice job mike vids are looking good

[@Mike_Barker]

Thanks Ron. I'm trying to make more of them in 2019.

Speaking of selling are there any T-shirt sweatshirts with your channel that are for sale? Great video as always. Thank you

Bring A Trailer prices for vintage 1970s Honda seem to be coming down. Although a '72 cb500 got $16,000! How about safety? CL? FB Marketplace? eBay? BaT?

Drives me crazy how bad some of the photos are that people post when they're selling their bike. I hate the dude that takes a bunch of close up pics of parts of the bike but not one pic that shows the entire bike. You need the money shot which is the profile. Some people will just post one pic which makes no sense. I think finding a cool location is the way to go, even just finding a cool old building or brick wall is put the bike in front of is nice. I've seen some people get overly artsy where every pic is black and white or sepia. You can't tell what color the bike is.

[@Mike_Barker]

I totally agree Dave. That little bit of extra prep work can go a long way towards helping secure a sale!

[@ClassicRider]

Never - -

[@Mike_Barker]

Never sell bikes for cash? Never take photos? Never never ever?
