Goodbye Honda Cub C70 and Some Online Selling Tips

Yupi the C70

I just sold my 1997 Honda Cub C70. I named him Yupi. I got Yupi about a year ago from his previous owner in UP Los Banos, Laguna. I bought Yupi for the use in my food delivery business. I was able to make use of his service for a few months, but only after spending a few thousand pesos for his repair and maintenance.

Some of you might ask why I spent money for an old beaten up motorcycle. For those who are not knowledgeable of  this type of motorcycle, Honda C70's are rated the number 1 greatest motorcycle ever by Discovery Channel! C70's are cheap, economical, and classic looking. You may view this Discovery Channel documentary here.

I never really wanted to sell Yupi. I wanted to restore and make him look like a brand new version of him. But due to the costs of restoring classic bikes, I opted to sell him and give him a better chance of being restored to his optimum beauty. 

I enjoyed my rides with Yupi, and I hope the new owner will be able to restore you beautifully until you become really the greatest motorcycle ever! 

Just to give you guys an idea on how I sold Yupi, I made use of free ad listings like OLX.PH

The market for used classic bikes is quite small that is why its quite long to sell. The secret to selling online is to make sure that you post honest descriptions of your item. Make sure also to communicate with prospective buyers all the time for proper scheduling and location meet ups. Do not get disheartened if you do not sell your item right away. Just make sure that your post is up and running and answer queries all the time. I'll post more about online selling soon!
