Default Actual cash value... ouch!

Had my showroom, paid off, flawless condition, stage 1 WG looked at today by a metric dealer. Bike is a 2007 with 10K miles. Has had all 3 major services and 2 other fluid changes.

Doesn't have a ding, dent or scratch on it. Told me it was worth $7500. Actually he didn't actually tell me... he didn't have the *****. So he text messaged me.

What say you guys? I'll stay calm.

Umm... he's pulling your chain or something. Or the economy is way worse than I thought. Sweet bike - don't sell it...

Paid off... runs great. Wanna keep it... A little nervous about warranty ending and bearing problems. Had all 3 replaced and the bike still whines like a baby.

Like was mentioned earlier in this post, kbb list blue book around 14 for a wide glide. Of course the dealer can't give what it's worth and turn around and make a profit, but that's just waaaay out of line!!
