I always thought dealers were there to sell bikes for more money than they paid for them.

What did you expect? It's no difference than a car. Harley is no different than any other business' out there, they want to make money. Sell it on your own.

with my local tax rate if new was $24,000 i would have to sell the 2010 for over $1000 more myself just to break even and not mention the time and hassle to try to sell it on your own. they make it quick and easy and we pay for convience

They let you off that easy there. Not here in Va. You will pay tax on the amount of the new bike regardless of trade in.
