    Hi all

    my honda lead 110 recently broke down after a long and difficlut journey ive been advised by both garages and motoden (honda uk offical delaer) thats its cheaper to start looking for a new bike. although disapointed i need this sorted so im going ahead with a new one. my question is what todo with the old one.its has substantual engine failure and im wondering what a broken scooter is worth ? and who exactly would buy it. delaer recommedned that i put the individual parts on ebay, but im pretty inexpreinced and it seems time consuming. any advice or thoughts much appreciated
    many thanks

    You dont have to sell parts individually, you can sell the whole bike as spairs, but you might loose abit of money as some people will only pay little amount because they need little parts of the bike, put the whole bike up on ebay and say that you are breaking it, people will inbox you saying what part they need off the bike and if you have it to send them a price.

    It is very time consuming. Theres no real way to know what its worth without considering condition and whats actually wrong with it etc and either way your more than likely gonna still be left with parts of it in a month or two most likely..

    Auctioning it as is is the way forward imo.

    Thanks for the replys. Would a breakers be close to a auctioneers ? I literally have no idea what its value is but the Honda guy seemed to say it has enough good parts to be worth a few hundred quid
