I'm in a financial hardship and I need to know dealers in the Atlanta, GA area that will sell my bike on consignment for me.

Call Southern Devil Harley Davidson in Cartersville, (678) 737-4304, and ask for Jeremy. I have seen at least one bike in there on consignment in the past, so they may be able to help out.

Thank you for yours, as well brother.

Jeremy at SDHD is a great guy, my brother went to high school with him years ago. He is also a vet.

If they are able to take your bike on consignment, he would be the guy that would know.

I don't know a thing about them except for some good reviews here on the forum, you might look into rumbleon.com. Maybe you could search the forum for additional info.

Just an FYI, you are trying to sell your bike at average retail for that year and model. Low retail is about $9K (so Rumbleon will probably offer you $8K or so.) . I know you have lots of extras, but extras really don't add any value to your bike, unless you can find the one person that wants the bike set up the way you have it.

The dealerships around here won't take a bike on consignment unless they do a service on it first, and replace the tires if needed. So you have to put out $300-$1,000 before they will put the bike on their sales floor. Then from that $12K they can sell the bike for, they will take %15-%20. Which could be $2,400. Also they usually have more profit in the bikes they have taken in on trade than consignment so salesman tend to push the other bikes first.

Reason I am saying this is I think you would sell it faster and get more money in your pocket if you lowered your price expectations to $9,500-$10,000 and just put it up for sale on Craigslist or Facebook market place.

If you can't tell I'm not a big fan of consignment to sell stuff.

Put it on Cycle Trader. Lots of people read that. It is where I found my current bike.

I tried RumbleOn. Offered me 70% of what my local dealer paid just to buy from me without trade in.
