I have a few questions for the forum. First let me say that I have a 2012 883 Iron with 420 miles on it and I love the bike. Second, I am unfortunately going through a divorce and need to sell the bike. I paid $8,000 for the bike, plus $2,000 for the HD VIP program, $2,000 for a 72 month extended service plan and another $2,000 for taxes, freight and handling. In summary, I paid $14,000 for the bike. I love the bike but I have to get rid of it. So my questions to the forum are does anyone know if the VIP program and the 72-month extended service plan are transferrable to a new owner? I am basically willing to sell the bike for $12,000 or so which will give someone a brand new bike with the VIP program and the 72-month service plan if those are transferrable. So does anyone know if they are? If not, does anyone have any tips on how to sell the bike through the forum? I went to the HD dealer and they told me they couldn't try to help me sell it, but they can do something called a finance assist for any new buyers; basically refinance the bike probably for the new owner. Any help is appreciated on this one.

Thanks.
Stop making payments and let them repo it. You are upside down by at least $7k.

Or, claim the $7k loss as a debt and get $3500 in the settlement with the soon-to-be-ex.
