Traded In Honda

[Carguy1959_imp]

So 2 years ago I trade my 2009 Harley Lowrider for my 2014 Honda CB1100. Now I traded in my CB1100, complete with Windjammer for a 2017 new Lowrider. They gave me $6000 for the Honda. The Lowrider was $15,000 plus all the dealer crap. They are sending the Honda to auction, not sure where. They don't sell used bikes other than Harley's. So someone may get a great deal on the first (documented) new CB with a windjammer installed as well as a few other custom upgrades. Only time will tell. I left zero info with the bike. I really missed my other Harley and the 17 is a little bit nicer. It also has the high output 103/1690cc's. The Lowriders are considered a cruiser but olnly weigh 630 pounds dry. It also has a low center of gravity. And the best part, it has self cancelling turn signals.

U got $6000 for a 2014 abs? How much money in aftermarket parts did you have on that CB?

Dealers will generally not consider add-ons and modifications as something that adds value to a bike when it is traded in.

That's a really good trade-in price for that bike. I would have expected something closer to $4000.

Absolutely they do not. That's why I was curious to know what he had. If he had 12k in spares then 6k would be a fair price

That's what I would have thought too. Gosh I'm dreading taking my 2013 to the dealer now hahaha

the beauty of motorcycling is there is a bike for everyone regardless of what your looking for ...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk My bike was a 2014 STD no abs. The fairing install cost me about $600 and about 8 hours of my time. I did have a Corbin seat that I bought new. That was the most expensive thing I bought for the bike.

Mobile Harley. They are about 15 miles from my house.

 

[Hondahawkrider_imp]

Nice

FWIW Harley is in trouble with sales so they are dealing like nuts

In in fla for my brother in laws wedding

He traded in a 2013 103ci softail with 35k mikes and got 17k on trade in...

 

[736cc_imp]

What did you pay for the hd and what do they list at? That will put your trade in amount in perspective.

 

[Carguy1959_imp]

The bike as stated in original post, was$14,995. They were having a "promotion" offering 118% NADA trade in value. It was 9-30-17 last day of the month. They also had a "International Bikini" contest the whole time my wife and I were there. I test rode 2 bikes, an 2018 Lowrider and a 2017 Lowrider. Long story short, the 17 was the better deal. The 18 soft tail Lowrider with the 107 Milwaukee 8 was very smooth and over all was a nice bike. They were trying very hard to get rid of there 17's. It just worked out.

Surely you know how it works. If the trade-in offer is good they get you in the other end. $6000 sure sounds high...
