How to Sell Your FONZ Electric Scooter or Motorbike
Thinking of selling your FONZ? A few simple steps can help you get a better price, sell faster, and give the next owner total confidence.
Australia’s electric two-wheel revolution is well underway - and as more riders upgrade to newer models, the pre-owned FONZ market continues to grow.
If you’re ready to sell your FONZ, a little preparation goes a long way. Here’s how to maximise value, build buyer confidence, and ensure a smooth handover.
List It Where Buyers Are
We recommend:
- Facebook Marketplace for local reach and quick enquiries
- Bikesales for more serious, high-intent buyers
Include clear photos, model details, kilometres, and any recent servicing.
Get It Sale-Ready
A clean, well-presented bike makes a strong first impression.
Before listing, make sure:
- The bike is clean and complete (charger, keys, accessories)
- Tyres, brakes, and general condition are in good shape
Stay Up to Date on Servicing
An up-to-date service is one of the easiest ways to increase buyer confidence.
If your service is due, we recommend completing it before listing, it removes friction and helps justify your asking price.
Add a Battery Health Check
For electric vehicles, battery confidence is everything.
We recommend booking a battery health check, including:
- State of Health (SOH) assessment
- Cell balancing (cycle cells)
Providing this information gives buyers peace of mind around range and longevity - and can significantly improve your resale value.
Price It Right
Research similar listings on Marketplace and Bikesales to understand the current market.
Factors that influence price:
- Model and year
- Battery health
- Kilometres
- Overall condition
- Time of year
A fair price attracts more serious buyers, faster.
💡Time Your Sale Right - Seasonality matters more than most people think.
Spring and early summer typically command stronger pre-owned prices, as more buyers are looking to get on the road for warmer weather, beach trips, and easier commuting. In contrast, winter can be quieter - often leading to lower offers and longer time to sell.
If you have flexibility, timing your sale for the warmer months can make a meaningful difference to your final price.
Complete the Transfer of Ownership
Once sold, it’s important to complete the transfer correctly.
Both parties should fill out the FONZ's transfer paperwork. You can follow our step-by-step guide here:

This ensures the vehicle is transferred and any remaining warranty is passed on to the buyer.
A New Chapter for Your Ride
Selling your FONZ is simple - and with the right prep, you’ll maximise value while keeping another electric ride on the road.
