About eMotoBuyers
eMotoBuyers is a free marketplace for used electric motorcycles, e-bikes and parts. Riders list what they're selling, buyers browse a list or a map, and the two message each other directly on the site.
We don't sell anything ourselves, hold payments or ship items. Buyers and sellers agree on the price, payment and pickup between themselves.
How it works
- Create a free account with your email and a password.
- List a bike or part. Bikes need photos, a price and the top speed. Parts need photos, a price and the type of part. Add your ZIP code to put the listing on the map.
- Message the seller from any listing. Your email address is never shown to other members, and they see your first name and last initial only.
- Meet up and pay in person, then the seller marks the listing as sold.
Safety tips
Meeting up
- Meet in a busy public place in daylight. Many police stations have a marked "safe exchange" spot.
- Bring a friend, and tell someone where you're going.
- Don't invite strangers to your home or go to theirs.
Checking the bike
- Ask for a test ride, and check the battery, charger, brakes, chain, tires and the frame for cracks or repairs.
- Check the frame or VIN number with local police or a stolen-bike registry such as Bike Index before you pay.
- Be wary of a bike with a ground-off serial number, no charger or key, or a price far below others like it.
- Ask for a receipt, title or proof of purchase where one exists, and write up a simple bill of sale.
Paying
- Pay or get paid in person, when you have the item in hand.
- Never send a deposit to hold an item you haven't seen, and never pay with gift cards or wire transfers.
- If someone asks for your phone number to "verify" you with a code, or wants to pay you more than the asking price, it's a scam.
- Keep the conversation on eMotoBuyers until you meet, so there's a record of it.
Riding legally
Many e-motos, including most Sur-Ron, Talaria and similar bikes, are sold for off-road use and aren't street legal without registration. Speed and power limits for e-bikes vary by state and city. Check your local rules before you buy or ride.
