Default Need Help Evaluating High Mileage Bike

I'm considering trading or selling my 1st Harley and need some advice from you pros. I have a 2008 Anniversary Road Glide with 47,000 miles on her. The bike is in mint condition with about 10K in extras such as 103 + 255s (done at 20K), detachable Tour Pack, lowers, Fatcats, SERT, chrome bar and controls, and much more. I understand there is little return on the accessories, I'll probably sell them separately. It runs great and to my knowledge there is nothing wrong except I'd like the new frame and ABS. I'm trying to decide if I'm better off selling the bike now with at 47K or keep it and trade in another year or two when it may have 60-70K on it. I don't know how to evaluate the value difference between 50K and 70K. Thanks for you ideas!
