RedBook Inspect launch mobile pre-purchase inspection
RedBook Inspect's new mobile inspection service will make it easier for customers to make more informed decisions when buying a second-hand motorcycleHave you ever regretted a motorcycle purchase because you were ill-informed about its true condition? Well, RedBook Inspect has launched a new mobile pre-purchase inspection service that will assist potential buyers in making smart and informed decisions.
The inspections involve an inspector travelling to the seller’s location, completing an inspection, and providing a star rating report based on the condition of the motorcycle.
“Motorcyclists are generally very switched on with their 2-wheeled machinery,” said RedBook Inspect’s Peter Navin. “When it’s time to make a purchase, they like to know all the ins and outs of the machine they are looking to buy. They research their purchase to make sure they are comfortable prior to handing over their hard-earned money.”
RedBook Inspect CEO Barry Freeman is pleased to be offering the new service. “We are very proud to be extending our services to bikes,” he said. “We want to grow our service offering into a range of new verticals.”
