I sold a 2015 CB1000R with 18k on the clock to superbike factory.
Offered the best price of all the bike buying types by about £500 quid, turned up, inspected it was as described, paid me and took it away.
I was totally honest about condition though, so they couldn't chip me really (the bike was in great condition for age and mileage) but I'm guessing your bike is immaculate with those miles.
Overall I'd recommend them.

i'd actually try Motorrad first. They know what they can sell it for.


Then as above, Superbike Factory not bad at all. Cash is in your account before they take the bike away.

Lots of dealers looking for stock at the moment, might be worth ringing a few local ones

There is no best as they all vary depending upon bike and how much they need stock but for your bike I suspect a BMW dealer will pay the most - but I'd call / get prices off at least 5 buyers

If you wait a week many increase their offer - I price PXs against WBAB - they offered £1500 for a Blade (I offered £3k) a few days later they increased to £2000 and a few days later to £2500
