Motobook
Taiwan’s first used motorcycle transparent pricing platform featuring over 37,000 listings and 812 models.
Motobook (moto.carbook.tw) is Taiwan’s premier data platform dedicated to real market prices for used motorcycles. By aggregating listings across the island, it empowers both buyers and sellers with genuine market rates rather than guesswork. The platform currently tracks approximately 37,397 active used motorcycle listings across 812 models, with a median asking price of around NT$198,000 (subject to real-time site updates)—covering everything from popular daily commuters like Cygnus, GP, and JET to niche models.
Key Features & Use Cases
Instead of just offering a blanket average, Motobook breaks down valuations by model year and mileage range. Because a 2019 model versus a 2023 model, or a bike with 10,000 km versus 30,000 km, can vary significantly in price, this granular data is essential. It also compares private party sales side-by-side with dealership prices, letting you clearly see the cost difference depending on where you buy.
For buyers, checking real market prices before making an offer ensures you won't get swindled by inflated asking prices. For sellers or those looking to trade up, it helps pin down a competitive, market-realistic price. Operating as a neutral third party, Motobook does not handle transactions.
Note: Market rates are aggregated from active asking prices and may differ from final transaction prices based on vehicle condition, maintenance history, and accident records. Always inspect the vehicle in person. Checking Motobook before buying or selling a used motorcycle is the smartest way to protect your wallet.

Editor's Note
The used motorcycle market has always heavily favored whoever knows the market best. Motobook strips away the guesswork by laying out transparent pricing down to the model year and mileage bracket, effectively closing the information gap. The side-by-side comparison between private sellers and dealerships is particularly practical—many people don't realize how wide that price gap can be. As always, remember these figures are baseline market ranges, so a thorough on-site inspection is still a must.
