Default Needing a little help

Ok guys I'm needing a little advice. I currently have an 03 night train with almost 28k miles (95" s&s 585 gear drive cams, fi with sert, a little head work and right about 95hp 95tq), I drove by a local car lot today and they had an 02 Electra glide standard fire fighters ed sitting out front so I stopped and looked at it. It's a local trade with 39k miles. The guy that traded it in said that it had had motor work just not sure what. I looked it over and it has a set of screamin eagle heads, hi flow filter, Mikuni carb, and you could tell some cams by the way it sounded when fired up. But no one seems to know what cams or what kind, when the motor work was done, and what all was done. Also it had a stock Harley radio that doesn't know and the right lower part of the bag has a little damage. Tires look ok, starts right up, has street glide front fender, Vance and Hines long shots ( I would rather have duals), chrome lowers, chrome wheels (back hasn't been cleaned very well and is pealing), and quick detach backrest and luggage rack. I'm just wondering do you guys think I should stick with my night train since I know every bolt and every part on and in it. Or think about trading it for the flht? They have 8900 list on the bike and know they have some wiggle room. If I were to trade my bike in what would be a fair deal (I personally think my bike is worth a decent amount more than the flht. Thanks for all the help. Here is a link to the flht. http://www.delongautogroup.com/vehic...ipton-in.shtml

Price is close to what I have seen around here for similar bikes. If you are wanting to do some touring, change.
