Buck, keep it! Think about it for a second. It's only 8 months and the new 2010 models hit the showroom, then you take a hit on your new 09 model, besides the huge hit your going to take on your current King. Plus, you're going into the absolute worst time of year to sell. Dealers won't give you squat, and private buyers are hording funds for Xmas and the kids. Fight the urge. Ride the tires off her, and next spring, if the market has turned you'll be better off making the sale. If not, you really haven't lost anything unless you've got some screamin', can't be passed up, sale on a Glide. Pinch yourself, and fight the urge. I honestly thing you'll be better off in the long run. If $$ is not the object, or not an issue, then I'd say you'll be lucky to get $14-$15K. I say that with respect, cause it's gorgeous, but the truth of the market and economy these days is harsh, even for those with big bank rolls. Good Luck, and let us know what you decide.

My Bro picked up an 08 SG(bone stock, 1200miles)for $15 grand. That was from a private seller. The HolySh$t part was the dealer offered the guy $12,500 on a trade. This was the dealer that sold him the bike 6months earlier for $20,500. Now thats an A$$ kickn.
Times are tough and everyone knows add-ons dont bring crap or anywhere near what you think they are worth. Your bike looks awesome, like some have said I'd hang on to her until a better market comes around.
Good luck!
