Default Asking price?

I hate to ask, but humor me please. What is a realistic asking price for a ‘19 FLHTK with 4500 miles on it? It’s black, bone stock expect for some cosmetic upgrades (chrome front end, saddlebag guards, Hammock seat), stereo upgrades (Wild Boar amps and speakers), Muller clutch slave and Street Cannon slip-ons?

I love the bike but I find myself riding my FLHTP 75% of the time, and I can easily set it up for 2-up riding on those rare occasions when mama wants to go along.

Thanks. Not sure what “finance advance” means. I checked NADA and came up with similar retail numbers but didn’t really believe they were realistic. Think it would get some looks if I asked 24K?

That is the price the bank is willing to lend you against the bike as collateral.

Prices are inflated now. I was going to buy a 2020 FLHTK for $26,600 last year, they’re selling for $30k now. I would ask $2-3k under what the dealers in your area are selling them for.

There are three listed for sale in Omaha, with higher milage, priced $25K to 27K.
The season is coming to an end, how fast would you like to sell it? Offer it at $25K, and sell it at $24K?
Good luck with the sale.

Good luck with the sale, post quality composted pictures in your ad, at least 10-12.
Beat me to it, This is what I would do. Put the price at 25K or 26K and see what happens. You can drop it some and you have built in room to come down if a serious buyer. Bad time of year to try and sell. Wait until February, get someone that is looking for a bike for Daytona etc that is everything they want but lower than dealer. That bike will definitely move, you just have to determine what your bottom line price is.
