if we all traded in our spouses in as much as we trade in bikes, no one would be able to afford new bikes

Never traded in a bike. All still in my garage right down to my 1st, Rebel 250.

You could be surprised, maybe not in a trade in but on private sell. I am sure lots of people who don't like the new small tank but want a breakout will be looking for used pre-18 breakouts

Nothing wrong with that. After I finish this FB, it'll go to the back of the garage with the rest and I'll get something else.

Just haven't had the time or budget to finish it. This whole bronze collection HD released has seriously upset my plans for it. They match the badge so nicely I have to run with it.

According to the specs the 2018 Breakout is about the same height, it has less than 1/4" more clearance, 4.5" vs. 4.3" and the seat height only 4 tenths of an inch higher at 26.2" vs. 25.8".
