At Bike Buyer UK, we buy a wide range of motorcycles and scooters across the UK. Whether your bike is nearly new, high mileage, damaged, or no longer running, we can usually offer a valuation.
Our flexible buying process allows us to handle most makes, models and conditions — saving you time and avoiding the hassle of private selling.
Below is an overview of the types of bikes we regularly buy.
Used Motorcycles & Scooters
We buy most used motorcycles and scooters, including:
- Daily commuters
- Weekend bikes
- Touring motorcycles
- Adventure bikes
- Sports bikes
- Naked bikes
- 125cc motorcycles
- Automatic scooters
If your bike is roadworthy, serviced, or recently MOT’d, it may achieve a stronger valuation — but we also buy bikes in less-than-perfect condition.
High Mileage Motorcycles
High mileage does not automatically mean low value.
We regularly buy motorcycles and scooters with:
- 30,000+ miles
- 50,000+ miles
- Delivery or courier use
- Commuter wear
As long as the bike is honestly described, mileage alone will not prevent a sale.
Damaged Motorcycles
We buy motorcycles and scooters with accident damage or cosmetic issues, including:
- Scratches and dents
- Panel damage
- Bent components
- Crash damage
- Insurance category bikes (Cat N / Cat S)
Just provide clear details and photos where possible so we can offer an accurate valuation.
Non-Running Bikes & MOT Failures
If your bike is not currently running, we may still be able to buy it.
This includes:
- Engine faults
- Electrical problems
- Failed MOT bikes
- Long-term storage bikes
- Project motorcycles
Non-running bikes are assessed individually and collected using appropriate transport when needed.
Scooters & Small Capacity Bikes
We buy scooters and smaller engine motorcycles including:
- 50cc scooters
- 125cc motorcycles
- Learner legal bikes
- Automatic scooters
- Delivery scooters
These bikes remain popular across the UK and we regularly purchase them in all conditions.
Modified Motorcycles
Modified bikes are welcome.
Examples include:
- Exhaust upgrades
- Suspension modifications
- Cosmetic customisation
- Performance upgrades
Some modifications can add value, while others may not. We assess each bike individually based on resale demand.
Older Motorcycles & Classics
We buy older motorcycles and classic bikes depending on condition and demand.
This includes:
- Older commuter bikes
- Vintage motorcycles
- Discontinued models
- Collector bikes
If you’re unsure whether your older bike qualifies, simply submit a valuation request and we’ll advise.
Bikes With Finance Or Outstanding Issues
In some cases, we can assist with bikes that have:
- Outstanding finance
- Incorrect paperwork
- Missing service history
- Lost MOT documentation
These situations are handled individually and may require additional checks.
What Bikes Can’t You Buy?
While we aim to buy most bikes, there are rare cases where we may be unable to proceed, such as:
- Stolen motorcycles
- Bikes with unresolved ownership disputes
- Incomplete frames without identification
If there is any uncertainty, contact us and we’ll confirm eligibility.
