Sell your motorcycle in Colombia for free: a category designed for motorcycles

Colombia moves on motorcycles, but most portals still treat a motorcycle as if it were any other used item: a title, a price, three photos, and a chat full of repeated questions. That is why we converted the motorcycle category into a specialized, free, and commission-free space.

Now you can include make, model, type of motorcycle, year, mileage, engine displacement, fuel type, color, previous owners, SOAT and technical inspection expiration, as well as indicate if you have the transfer ready and the maintenance history available.

Why Colombia needs a better motorcycle market

It is not a small category. In May 2026, the RUNT reported that 64% of the vehicle fleet registered in Colombia corresponds to motorcycles. And the market continues to grow: ANDI and Fenalco reported 654,146 new motorcycles registered during the first semester of 2026, an increase of 33.70% compared to the same period in 2025.

The motorcycle is daily transport, a work tool, a time saver, and, for many families, an important part of their income. A category with that weight deserves better listings, better filters, and a clearer way to connect buyers and sellers.

The types of motorcycles you can already choose

Adding the type is optional, but it helps the right buyer find the ad without having to guess from the photo.

You can also indicate if it is electric in the fuel field. Buyers can filter by type, make, year range, transmission, fuel, maximum mileage, engine displacement range, number of owners, valid documents, transfer ready, and maintenance history.

How to post a motorcycle to receive more serious inquiries

1. Separate make and model. “Yamaha” is the make; “FZ 25” is the model. Writing both in a structured way improves filters.
2. Add the numbers that determine the purchase. Year, mileage, and engine displacement avoid the first round of basic messages.
3. Upload honest photos. Include both sides, dashboard on, tires, engine, chain, seat, and any visible scratches or repairs.
4. Indicate document dates. The buyer can filter ads with valid SOAT and technical inspection, but must confirm official information on their own.
5. Show maintenance and transfer. If you keep invoices or records, indicate it. If you have already prepared the documents to carry out the transfer, you can also mark it.
6. Define price and city. A realistic price and a clear location reduce contacts that cannot complete the visit.

You don't need to complete all fields to post. They are optional because a useful listing should not become an endless form. But every clear piece of data helps the buyer arrive better prepared.

The photos that reduce doubts before the visit

The first photo should show the entire motorcycle, with good light and without filters that change the color. Then it is advisable to cover what a serious buyer would check in person: left side, right side, front, rear, dashboard with mileage, engine, tires, chain kit, and seat. If there is a bump, scratch, or replaced part, photograph it up close.

Hide the full license plate and any personal data that appears on the property card or invoices. You can demonstrate that you keep the maintenance history without publishing names, identification numbers, addresses, or document codes.

A short video with a cold start can also help, but it does not replace an expert inspection. Avoid recording risky maneuvers or using public roads to demonstrate speed.

How to use the new filters when searching

Someone looking for an urban motorcycle can combine street type, maximum displacement, and city. Someone who needs comfort can filter for scooter and automatic transmission. For trips, they can start with adventure or dual-sport; for work, by street or cargo and a reasonable mileage range. There are also shortcuts for electric motorcycles, valid documents, transfer ready, and maintenance history.

A filter does not certify the condition of the motorcycle. Its function is to reduce a large list to relevant candidates. The documentary and mechanical verification happens afterwards, directly with official sources and an independent professional.

What a buyer must verify before paying

The fields in an ad are declarations by the seller, not a verification by the platform. Before handing over full payment:

• Confirm that the seller's identity and the registered owner match.
• Check the validity of the SOAT and the technical-mechanical inspection by plate number on the official RUNT portal. The Ministry of Transport explains that query.
• Check for fines, limitations, and liens through the appropriate official channels.
• Compare chassis and engine numbers with the documentation.
• Request an independent mechanical inspection, even if the motorcycle looks impeccable.
• Put price, payment method, condition, and responsibilities in a sales contract.
• Complete the transfer before the traffic authority. The official guidance from the Ministry of Transport reminds that the seller must carry out the transfer and that, if they do not do so, they continue to appear as the owner.

We also want an inventory of workshops and dealerships

A dealership should not have to post twenty motorcycles one by one. Businesses with 10 or more listings can request free bulk upload: send us your inventory in Excel, CSV, or the link to your page, and we will adapt it to the required format. Photos can be hosted with us, and a custom identifier allows you to update inventory without creating duplicates.

If you manage motorcycle inventory, write to us to activate bulk upload. We do not charge a commission on sales.
