If you're wanting to purchase EZ Rider - sales are temporarily offline as we're doing upgrades in preparation for new releases in the coming weeks over on our new site at JustJoomla.com

EZ Rider is an easy-to-use motorcycle listing component for the Mambo/Joomla content management systems.  Also, just because something is easy to use doesn't mean you have to settle for little in the way of features or a low-quality presentation that requires hours of custom modifications.  EZ Rider was designed with presentation in mind - to make your sales listings look great!  It also doesn't matter what sort of site you want to run - EZ Rider has the flexibility to run a site for your own listings, multi-dealer listings or a community sales portal offering free and/or paid listings - EZ Rider is PayPal IPN enabled to do it all!

For example - to run a sales portal - start your site off in "free listings mode" to establish a membership base of listings with quality information, progress on to the "combined mode of operation" where you offer free listings with the option to pay for upgrades - and suddenly you've got a money-making site.  As the success of your site grows - you can then progress onto a "paid listings only" basis if you want - and now you've got the opportunity for some serious income.

EZ Rider can be used by:-

• A single dealer wanting to list his/her own business listings
• Multiple dealers employed by a single business to list their individual listing responsibilities
• Multi-dealer co-operatives wanting to list on a shared site
• Online entrepreneurs wanting to run a FSBO motorcycle sales portal
• A new sales dealership wanting a display library for their stock
• A motorcycle club wanting a way for members to display their motorcycles - eg. restoration or customization projects
