Part exchange value

Post by MikeS »

Took my RT to the local Honda dealer for a part ex value against a new NT1100. They seemed vaguely interested until I mentioned the mileage, 46k. Then they lost interest and suggested I contacted webuyanybike for a cash value and come back. I knew it was nonsense but out of interest but did it anyway. £2000 was the offer despite full BMW service etc. I think I'll keep it.

Anything with tits or an engine is going to cost you money over time. Use it and get the best value out of it for your enjoyment before it starts costing you. :thumb:

£2000 for a 2019 bike is a joke. When I test rode a Harley Street glide, the mileage didn't matter. Mine is 07 with scratches and bumps and they offered me £3500. This is a lot more than I paid for her. Oh she has done around 635000 miles on the clock.
The HD dealer exspected higher mileage due to being a touring model.
Trust me I am a retired Doctor and lecturer at Oxford University of Structural and Mechanical/Electrical engineering.
May the shaft be with you
