Sell A Damaged Or Written-Off Motorbike

Crashed, dropped or recorded as a write-off — still worth real money.

Damage does not make a bike worthless, it makes it harder to sell privately. Buyers get nervous, insurers offer what suits them, and the bike ends up sitting in a garage costing you money. We buy damaged bikes as a matter of routine and price them on what they actually are.

Light cosmetic damage, a proper accident, or a bike already recorded as Cat S or Cat N - describe it accurately and you will get a straight figure. It does not need to be roadworthy and it does not need to move under its own power.

Getting The Best Price

What we need to know

The more we know upfront, the firmer the offer — and the less chance of it changing when we collect.

The damage category

Cat S and Cat N bikes can be repaired and returned to the road, and we buy both. Cat A and Cat B cannot legally go back on the road, so tell us which one applies.

Photos make a real difference

Damage is hard to describe in words. Adding photos to your quote is the fastest way to a firm price that does not move at collection.

What still works

A crashed bike with a healthy engine and clean frame is worth considerably more than one with structural damage. Tell us what survived.

Insurance status

If a claim is open or the insurer has already made an offer, say so. It changes who can legally sell the bike and when.

Common Questions

Sell A Damaged Or Written-Off Motorbike — your questions answered

Yes, both. They are recorded write-offs that can legally return to the road once repaired, and there is an active market for them. The category is factored into the valuation.

Cat A must be scrapped entirely and Cat B can only be broken for parts with the frame destroyed, so they are handled differently. Get in touch and we will tell you honestly what is possible.

Usually not. Repairs rarely return more than they cost unless you can do the work yourself with cheap parts. Selling as-is is normally the better outcome.
