Trade my 02 Pearl White Road King Classic, 21,000mi in for an 03 Pearl White Electra glide Classic, 33,000 mi. plus have to give 2500.00 cash. Good deal or bad deal. Both bikes exc. condition.

Kinda works out to $2500 for a radio and fairing....and unknown wear on the other bike.

At least with yours, you know how it has been maintained.

02 Road King is one of the best year for used. I would take the 2500 you would spend on the 03, keep your 02 and get a fairing for it, if that is what you want.

I would think those two bikes would be no more than maybe $1500 difference due to age.

+1....DO NOT DO IT...;-) the 02 is a great year!! better crank, timken bearings so on and so forth. Put a gear drive cam in and ride forever. detachable fairing is the better way to go in my opinion. best of both worlds

Keep your '02. For the milage difference they should give you money.

Then again, I like 02 RKC's.
