Selling my Spyder - should I let them ride, or pillion?

[MRH]

One way to do it is to tell the buyer that the process will be as follows: payment will be made in full, in cash, to the seller, who as part of the bill of sale offers a 30 minute money back guarantee. The buyer hands over the money, gets the keys and UNSIGNED title transfer, and the time is noted. The buyer then gets to take it out for a ride, and if he decides to keep it, just returns to get the now signed title transfer. If he decides to not keep it, he returns within the 30 minute time frame and gets his money back when he dismounts the bike and returns the keys.

I was simply going to say that you needed a liability release and cash in hand, but I think this is a far better option. One vote for this very wise suggestion.

The decision has been made to sell my Spyder RTS..... My question is the buyer test ride - my plan is to have them ride passenger....... But what is the protocol on test rides? I am leaning pretty heavy on the buyer riding in the passenger seat. Your thoughts? Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't buy a bike/car/truck that I couldn't test drive unless it was a really good deal and I had a lot of experience with the product. Maybe meet the buyer at a dealer and have them take a dealer bike for a test ride while you follow. If they are a good rider, then let them ride your Spyder.

Let your conscience and the potential buyers experience be your guide.
