Used Cruiser in Canada

Check the frame and welds for damage, paint consistency, engine start and idle, oil level and color, compression/leaks, tires and brakes, suspension play, electricals, service history, mileage, VIN and title status. Test-ride if possible to feel clutch, gearbox and handling.

Run a VIN history report to check for accidents or salvage branding, verify the seller’s ID and the title matches the VIN, check for liens, and confirm registration status in your state or country.

Options include door-to-door open transport, enclosed carriers for higher-value bikes, crated freight for long international moves, or local pickup. Choose enclosed shipping for protection and open for lower cost.

Clean and document the bike with photos, secure or remove loose items, disable alarms, maintain minimal fuel, stabilize the battery or disconnect it if required, tape controls if needed, and note fluid levels and existing damage.

Do an oil and filter change, inspect/adjust chain or belt drive, check brakes and tires, test battery and charging system, inspect valves and fluids per the manual, and schedule any overdue service or safety repairs.
