How to Get Your Used Motorcycle Looking Brand-New!

Despite what you may think, transforming a used motorcycle so it looks brand-new is a pretty easy feat! While it can vary based on the condition of your current model, you’ll find there are a ton of easy ways to get a used bike looking like it just rolled off the factory floor. To learn how, just take a look at our helpful article below!

Wax and Shine Your Used Motorcycle 

If your used motorcycle is looking a little worse for wear, a good deep clean may just be the solution! After washing away all of the built-up dirt and grime, make sure to take the time to carefully polish and wax your bike. A good wax will help your motorcycle look shiny and new, and help protect your paint job from UV and water damage. Once your bike is looking fresh and clean, we recommend grabbing a tire and leather shine to help retouch your seats, tires, or any other leather accessories you have on your motorcycle.

Replace Old Parts and Accessories

Replacing damaged or worn parts on your vehicle can seriously improve its overall appearance as well. Accessories such as tire rims, seats, and handlebar grips accumulate a lot of wear and tear over time, making an otherwise beautiful bike look tacky and worn out. Old equipment or customizations left by previous owners can also add a dated or shabby look to your bike—especially if they haven’t been properly cared for in the past. If you’re looking to give your motorcycle a new modern look, we recommend removing some of these older accessories.
