Trade in's - SV650.org

Got a trade in price from Riders in Bristol, yesterday, on a Harley Davidson Nightster, (i know but hey i'm getting old)
650 sport, 10 months old with 1000 miles on the clock,they reckon it is only worth £2500 !

At that sort of money, does not warrant getting rid, reckon it must be worth £3000 - £3200 on the private market.

Don't think i will ever buy another new bike.............depreciation sucks

What did you expect when you bought it?

Anyway you're buying a hardly driveable you deserve to get conned

Want a comfy riding position then get a KTM

I got £2800 for mine trade in.

1 year 4 months old.........4700 on the clock.

Now up for £3400 in the dealers I traded it in at.

Really it depends on what sort of deal you are getting on the new bike really.

Sell it private, you'll get a better deal that way. As will the person buying it

Better money for both parties, but not necessarily a better deal. Lots of people are happier buying at a dealer as it provides some peace of mind - both pre and post sales checks, test rides, warranty etc.

If you are confident buying privately then great, but dealers have a place.
