Default 2008 Without 883R...What About Value?

In my opinion 883R is one of the best H-D ever made, I like the bike, the graphic and the black style it has. That's why I bought mine a few mounths ago.

What happens when a H-D is not in the range models anymore? Does its value increases or decreases?

I don't know but I would ask myself why were they dropped from production. That might have something to do with future demand. Some models like the Softail Custom when dropped (and has since come back into production) were extremly popular and some models were dropped because there wasn't enough demand for them.

From what I have seen, none of the dropped models have ever been worth more. They usually bring about the same money as another model in that family's line.

I would guess if they were selling well they'd keep producing them
