You should not be paying tax unless you turned a profit on the sale.

You're right but, If you bought the bike years ago there's a strong chance you no longer have the receipt/invoice.

You won't need that unless you get audited, which is highly unlikely unless you're doing questionable things consistently, and even then they probably wouldn't care enough to look into a single bike sale too deeply.

I've been audited. It wasn't that difficult and I didn't need every last individual scrap of information
