Value of Harley CSC trike?

[tomsidelko]

I have a 2008 Harley Ultra Classic with a CSC conversion. It is in excellent condition with 27K. I love this trike, and want to keep it, however I may have to sell it for financial reasons. (It is not up for sale yet.)

Since Kelly Blue book, and other
similar companies do not list values of trikes, I'm wondering if Forum readers can help me determine the value of my trike.

May I have comments and recommendations?
Thank you.

I would think that the value of an 08 Ultra Classic plus about 3/4 of the cost of the conversion
would be a good starting point.

Here's the motorcycle ½ of your equation = http://www.nadaguides.com/Motorcycles/2008/Harley-Davidson

Regarding your trike kit ½ of your equation, I couldn't find CSC trike kits (only sidecars) but I did find some comparables =

You add the motorcycle ½ and the trike ½, there's your estimated value. Of course, the year of the trike kit may be different than the motorcycle year, accessories, mileage, blah, blah, blah.

So, set down in front of your computer, with a cold six-pack, and good luck

PS: Ask your insurance agent how they valued it ~ they may have a resource that mere mortals don't have. Also, stop by a dealer ~ how do they value it for a trade-in?

All that has been mentioned is correct. Remember your starting price should be at the high end but not out of site. The bottom line becomes what a reasonable buyer is willing to spend. I bet it's going to be in the 15 to 17k range. Maybe a little more if the right trike gets together with the right buyer. It is 8 years old now.

I had a CSC DAYTONA TRIKE KIT on a 2000 Electraglide Classic that was traded on a 2015 Indian Chieftain. I got $15000 on the trade in. They sold it for $18999 (was listed at that). I would say a good sell price is somewhere between $17000 and $20000. They are a beautiful and desirable trike kit setup. Good luck selling it, should be easy.
