Ebay?
You’re just after entertainment there, not a sale shirley?

Watch out for the I work on an oil rig so won’t be able to collect in person, I’ll pay and then get it collected by someone. Same outcome as mentioned above, buyer makes a claim against PayPal saying they never received the goods and you get royally fucked over in the process!
As one has said already get some decent pictures taken and advertise it on here for starters. You can take it direct to a dealers or sell it to ‘we buy any bike’ if you’re desperate to shift it but you’re going to take a hit on the price. Autotrader isn’t a bad option, quite a few people use it as a first port of call when looking for specific bikes. Ebay would be my last port of call.
It is as you say the wrong time to sell but if you’re buying another bike it can be a good time to trade in.
Now on eBay I have 19 watchers so let's see what happens. Really gutted to sell this bike - The GS is by far the best road bike I've ever had (I couldn't use my s1000rr on the road just too crazy). The GS is just so bloody good on normal road at normal-ish speeds. I love it.

I now have a "buyer" on eBay clearly trying to scam me. The convoluted messages are quite entertaining and reminiscent of the good old days of early "African princes and lawyers"... Not sure how the scam actually is supposed to work. Trying to get my paypal details and book a collection of the bike by a delivery agent. I say it all sounds legit
We buy any bikes type of shop, got £2,000 more than BMW dealer offered , simple didnt ask how much I wanted for the bike, just told me how much they would pay, bacs transfer there and then, I got a taxi home
Two different viewsDon't use webuyanybike or some such sites - jokers! Offerred me £8K for a 1 year old S1000XR with 5K miles on it.
Indeed....
When now with absolute clusterfuck the UK is AGAIN finding itself in with lockdowns and mysterious mutated viruses etc it's even more of a mess ... What a year.
The year is awful. But I think that all events are not accidental
