Firstly, you need to look at the bike, and look at what kind of condition the bike is in. Look for scratches, or dents, or if the bike has been abused, or if the seat covers have been ripped or torn. If the bike looks slightly damaged, then it is probably best to look at other bikes. If you are able to, look and see if there are any leaks.
One of the most important parts that you need to know when looking for motorcycles for sales, is what type of bike you want. As there are many different types of bikes, and different brands, knowing what you want will help you narrow down the search and will take you half the time to look for you bike. Also consider, what the bike is going to be used for, and how often you will drive it. As this will help you determine what type of bike you are after.
Next, you will need to look at the tires. The tires need to be in good condition, as you don't want to have to replace the tires anytime soon, because of the damage that has been done to them. There shouldn't be all that much wear and tear to them. They should still be in reasonably good condition.
Next, what you will need to do is look at the brakes. The pad of the breaks, shouldn't be cracked, and there should be a quarter of an inch of the pad left as well. If the bike has breaks that doesn't have good grip, or if it squeals, then you may need to discuss this with a professional.
When you look at motorcycles for sale, you shouldn't just look at the price. You need to look at the overall bike and the condition it is in before purchasing it.
