Default trade-in nitetrain&roadglide for new 2011 roadglide?

the dealer has a 2011 Sedona Orange Roadglide with the 103 upgrade.
havent started "haggling" on the price yet. They are a good dealership and have taken care of me in the past. Retail on the bike before tax,licensing etc is $22k

Im debating if i decide i want this bike i will trade in my 2007 Orange Roadglide with 20k. I have done zero engine work. It has Yaffe 10 inch apes, bassani exhaust, Arc amp, 6 1/2 inch speakers and cyclevisions baglites.

i would also trade in my 06 nitetrain in. That has been modified/customized with legends air ride, marzocchi inverted front end, ridewright 18x4.25 fat 50 front rim, heartland rear fender, yaffe x-pipes, br customs bars, lazerstar front and rear signals.

I owe a little on both of my bikes so it would eliminate a payment as well as some insurance.

thoughts? i know i have no $$$ amounts listed in this trade since i havent sat down to find out their offer. Im still tryin to decide if i want to do the deal and "Start over" building the roadglide again....

Having two bikes is nice especially when you got a tourer and a bar hopper. That is the set up I had until the divorce. Good luck on making the right decision.

I gotta agree with DMorr99.
My goal is to hang on to my fatboy till it's paid off then get a tourer.
Having the softail and a touring bike is definitely my goal and I don't think I'd rather have one over the other.

Do you have any of the stock parts left. If so throw them back on. And see what you get.

How much do you like/ ride the train?

They most likely aren't going to trade you straight up either, they will want cash from you

This is most certainly the case.

Out of all 4 of my bikes, the nighttrain has the least mileage on it- around 5,500 original miles.

Before i start hearing any grief, the roadglide has over 20k, the roadking has 25k and the deluxe has over 10k. So I ride, i just dont take the nitetrain out other than barhopping really.

I understand that they will not trade me straight up 2 bikes for one bike.....

I did see a victory 8 ball vision i like the looks of all blacked out. Stock 106 engine, 6speed, I know the "Spaceship" looks are not traditional....

if you do a lot of long rides, probably worth getting the RG. Im trading in my 09 Ultra, 2 years and 14000 miles because i just dont do any long distance riding, time and money constraints. Getting a low because first love the looks and it fits me, and im tired of lugging the weight around town. If i could do long trips more often, id keep the Ultra. Ive got a Triumph Speed triple in the stable for speed and fun. But im personally looking for a Harley that does the majority of my type of riding a little better. IMHO
