How many miles you put on the 08? I would test ride all the bikes you are looking at before you buy anything. I see a lot of low mileage 2007 like with less than 2000 miles on them. These people either bought the wrong bike or had it repossesed by the lender. I would make sure this time.

don't get me wrong, I like the superglide. When I traded my Low Rider They gave me what I thought was a fair amount for it, but I had to keep the payments fairly low so I did not even consider a touring bike. Well, after I rerlized that I was into this for a long stretch and the way these bikes do not hold value anymore, I am thinking maybe I need to do something quick to get the most money out of it and get the touring bike. I am just bouncing around if I need a part time job and send all that money to the bike or just not worry about it and hope for the best, I knowthere is no way to tell at this point whatthe trade in will be later on, I guess I just needed to rant.

Don't call it trading it in, call it giving it to the dealer
