Suzuki US tries factory-backed used bikes
Suzuki in the USA is having a go at setting up a factory-backed used bike scheme in an effort to prop up resale values and provide an alternative for purchasers.The company's American media release says: The Suzuki Select Certified Pre-owned Motorcycle Program, announced at the company's National Motorcycle Dealer Meeting, Sept 24-26 in Las Vegas, is scheduled to launch this month.
"Motorcycle customers don't always know what they are getting when they buy a used bike from a private party," said Glenn Hansen, communications manager. "With Suzuki Select, consumers can walk into a dealership and choose a pre-owned street motorcycle or scooter with confidence, knowing that it has been through a thorough inspection and is in top condition."
To be certified, the bike must be less than four years old, have less than 30,000 miles (48,000km) and pass a rigorous 77-point inspection by an authorized Suzuki technician. In addition, Suzuki Select motorcycles and scooters come equipped with a standard 90-day extended protection plan that can be upgraded to 12, 24 or 36 months, as well as 90-day roadside assistance, which also is renewable. In-store financing will be available on approved credit.
