Standard motorbikes are easier to ride and handle than other types of bikes such as sports and cruisers, which increases demand for used standard bikes. They also come in a wide range of sizes and are excellent for daily commuting because they are affordable, dependable, comfortable, and economical. These typical bikes are chosen for daily commuting or travel because of their features and their low maintenance costs. This is anticipated to fuel the market's growth.
Moreover, the motorcycle category primarily focused on performance is that of sports bikes. They have a strong engine, a light frame, and handlebar locations that support an aggressive riding stance. Additionally, sports motorbike suspension systems are more advanced with more compression and rebound settings, enhancing the ground clearance during turns and allowing the rider to adopt a more prone position. Many sports bike manufacturers, including Harley-Davidson, Yamaha Motor Corporation, and others, have created and launched platforms for used bikes. For instance, in July 2021, Harley-Davidson debuted the HD-1 Marketplace, an online platform on their main website. Only the U.S. presently has access to this facility for buying and selling used Harley-Davidson motorcycles. They may anticipate it being offered in other regions of the world shortly, it further stated. It is anticipated that the development of such certified pre-owned or used bikes will increase demand for sports motorcycles and hence, fuel the used bike market.
In the market for bike taxis, scooters are becoming more popular, particularly for medium- and short-distance excursions. Due to their modest speed and ease of use, scooters are more maneuverable than motorbikes. Due to their significantly smaller weight than motorcycles, scooters are easier to ride in tight spaces and over rough terrain, making them a practical and economical method of transportation. Due to these advantages, the scooter market for used bikes is anticipated to expand rapidly throughout the forecast period.
The market for used bikes is boosted by reasons including the expansion and popularity of motocross competitions, the technological progress of adventure and mountain bikes, and the growth of adventure motorcycles. In addition, it's becoming more popular to upgrade outdated adventure motorcycles with modern inventions in frame metals, riding techniques, and shape to make them more modern. As a result, the demand for used adventure motorcycles drives their upgrading and enhancement, which in turn drives the market growth.

Executive Summary
The Used Bikes Market is expected to experience a significant growth rate of 5.6% from 2022 to 2031 owing to rising internet-based sales.Used bikes are referred to as secondhand bikes or pre-owned bikes. A used bike is one that has been driven or owned before by one or more customers. There are many places where used automobiles can be purchased, including franchise and independent bike dealerships, rental bike agencies, public and private yard sales, and leasing offices.

Key factors driving the growth of the used bikes market include a rise in prevalence of the e-commerce industry and rise in popularity & evolution of motorcycle events in developed economies. Motocross racing events are held in almost all-weather conditions making it more difficult for the participants. Currently, motocross has evolved as a major sport worldwide, and riders or racers need to focus on various aspects of this sporting event. For instance, motocross has garnered more fans in China after the Motocross World Championship, the most influential of the sport's events globally, hosted its annual showcase at the China International Import Expo in Shanghai for two consecutive years from 2020 to 2021. The event entered China for the first time in 2019, filling the gap in first-class motocross events in the country. Also, the growing number of women participating in motocross events and increased focus on R&D in Motorcycles & their ability to improve their reliability and safety, especially regarding the safety of the riders and the spectators, supported the market’s growth. This also increases demand for refurbishment, renovation, and upgradation of old or used motorcycles to participate and perform in motorcycle events. Hence, the rise in popularity & evolution of motocross events is expected to offer lucrative growth opportunities for the global used bikes market.
Moreover, due to their low cost and ease of use, street mopeds or bikes with a capacity of up to 125cc are quite popular. Owning a small-engine bike is a fantastic alternative for motorcycle riders to become used to riding motorcycles. Due to their small engines, bikes with capacities up to 125cc are perfect for beginner riders to practice handling and engine management. Because of their fuel efficiency, 125cc motorcycles are popular among even seasoned riders. These factors are expected to help drive the market's growth during the forecast period.
Modified used motorcycles are not only reasonably priced and fuel-efficient, but they also garner the consumer's attention right away because of their outstanding looks. Another factor contributing to the market's high demand for refurbished motorcycles is the low maintenance costs of these vehicles. Additionally, for off-road racing, 150cc to 200cc dirt bikes with two-stroke engines are frequently used. Although they are no longer often manufactured, used two-stroke road motorbikes are still available. These engines are more powerful than a normal four-stroke engine, but they also require more maintenance. This is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the used bikes market.

Due to an increase in consumer disposable income and a rise in living standards, LAMEA has seen sustained economic growth over the past few years.
