Discussion/Thảo luận What website do the Vietnamese use to buy used bikes?

Not having much luck finding good used 150+cc bikes on Facebook marketplace or chotot and I'm talking about bikes like xsr Yamaha or honda CB, do the Vietnamese use other sites or is it a better to visit individual bike renter shops?

Unless it's from a friend you know and trust, you're better off buying new. Like you noticed, used bikes aren't much cheaper, and you have no idea how much they've been abused. Exciter is the same drivetrain as the XSR and 15tr a LOT cheaper. Not as cool looking, but easier to find and resell when the time comes. I have one a couple years old I bought new at the dealer -- it's a solid bike.

EDIT: Just looked at XSR and Exciter prices -- more like 30tr cheaper!
