• 🔍 Search-Based Extraction — paste any Cycle Trader search or category URL (all motorcycles, a specific make like Honda, or a filtered search by category, condition, or location) and the scraper paginates through the results automatically.

💰 Pricing

This Actor uses a transparent Pay-Per-Event model — you only pay for the data you actually collect, and runs that return nothing cost nothing.

Event	Price
Listing scraped (fast pass)	$0.004 per listing ($4 per 1,000)
Full detail scraped (dealer phone, gallery, full specs)	$0.010 per listing ($10 per 1,000)

How much does it cost to scrape Cycle Trader? Collecting 1,000 listings in the default fast mode costs about $4. Pulling 1,000 fully-detailed records with dealer phone numbers, complete specs, and photos costs about $10. Apify's free tier includes monthly usage credits, so you can try it at no cost.

💡 Tips

• Keep Scrape full listing details off when you only need a title, condition, and price — it's faster and cheaper.
• To collect very large volumes, split your run by facets (make, category, condition, or location) — like most marketplaces, Cycle Trader caps how deep a single search can paginate.
• Use Max items to cap costs precisely during testing.
• Schedule runs on Apify to track price changes and new inventory over time.

❓ FAQ & Support

Is scraping Cycle Trader legal? This Actor collects only publicly available listing data. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with Cycle Trader's Terms of Service and applicable laws (including data-protection regulations). Do not use scraped personal data unlawfully.

Can I scrape a specific make, category, or location? Yes — apply any filters on Cycle Trader and paste the resulting URL as a start URL.

Why are some runs slower? Reliable access requires residential proxies and occasional retries; the Actor handles this automatically.
