    I have a 2016 F3T SE6 that is loaded with extra Farkles. It has 5,700 miles and two years left on extended warranty. What is the best way to determine what to sell it for? Thanks

    Extra farkles are nice but don't generally add value for a prospective purchaser. Your transferable warranty and low miles do add value. I'm not a big fan of using Kelly or Blue Book for establishing your sales price. There is usually just not enough regional data to get real good information for Spyder sales. Take a look on Craigs List and this forum for vehicles being sold. See what asking prices are and then look to see which vehicles are actually selling and for what price. Remember, what you paid and how much additional you put into the Spyder has absolutely no effect on it's value today. Good luck..... Jim

    I would think the BRP Top Case and the Trailer hitch would’ve add some value?

    Cycle Trader has some good numbers to review as well, and they have regional type settings too. They will give you a good idea of what you are looking at nationwide. Avoid buying services, they are no better than pawn shops (RumbleOn) as they only give you trade in value at best, less a percentage too. And other posts are correct on the Farkles. They do not help with value, that is largely determined and estimated off the VIN number where all the STOCK options will be listed and be able to add value to the trike. If you are patient, private sales will net you more money.

    I would sell the trailer separately myself, other trikes can use the Freedom line trailer, and I have heard there is some demand on those. The BRP Top Case will help IF it was on the bike when it rolled off the show room floor, or you can document it was added at a dealer.

    For some people (like me) that is important. Not having a radio would be a deal-killer for me. I like to crank up the tunes when riding. And, a well cranked up stereo is better than deer whistles for avoiding Bamby..... Jim

    Seems like the NADA average between and high and low retail is a fair private seller price. If the farkles are listed in NADA or KBB then feel free to incorporate into the price. If not then they are really just a sweetener to a quicker sale. Ive been looking and your moto “on average” seems to be in the $15k-16k range. Hope this is of some help.

    Understand that a dealer will probably offer you $11,000.00 in trade so go from there (that would be an average wholesale price).

    That particular trailer won’t add much to the wholesale price.

    I would think the top case with rear speakers would add some value to the bike. Generally about $.50 on the dollar. As far as the trailer hitch adding value to the bike it really doesn't especially if the buyer is not planning to pull a trailer.

    Go to a dealer and see what they will give you for it and if you decide to sell to a private party add 3-5 k to the price. Also shop around on cycle trader as suggested. Gives you an idea of pricing in your area too.

    Take the farkles off and sell them out right that's the only way they'll add value, they will help with resale though!

    If you look at the for sale ads on the site, you will see that the items that sell are:

    Priced in that magic spot between trade in and low retail.

    Farkles usually go for 50% to nothing depending on what they are. One persons "bling" is not necessarily another's.

    Ads with 500 or more looks and no replies are common here. It is usually the asking price that is to high. The site has many knowledgeable people. They know what a used Spyder is worth and recognize a good deal when they see it.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.
