+1 on that

If you have the space keep it, because one aftermarket part is likely get you more than most of the original parts combined

 

I keep some stuff around, mainly smaller parts as lenses, trim rings and so on but have already shipped old wheels, pipes etc. off. Didn't plan on reusing felt someone else may so ebay'd the stuff as I could.

 

My takeoffs have saved a buddy of mine alot of cash. I cant sell em for much so I just keep em boxed up in the garage until he needs something.

 

My dealer kept all parts I replaced when I bought new. I got to thinking I may want them,went back to get em and they already got rid of em......????? Oh well it probally just save me some space. Kept my original wheels and tires though, in case I sell or trade.

 

I have all of the stock parts for both the '05 and the '84 boxed up. It drives the wife bonkers.

 

I have almost enough parts to build a complete motor, just need cases and a few minor things. I tried selling most of them and couldn't get any interest so I'll be looking for maybe a '99 road king thats beat to crap and needs a motor. When I sell my '03 ultra.,,

 

I take back everything from the dealership. They resale your take off parts overseas. Thats what the parts guy told me. We only got on that subject because i needed a stock convex right mirror. And he had to sell me one instead of giving me one of the take offs he had in stock. When he told me they resell the take offs and make a killing over seas I almost got sick to my stomach. From here on out, I keep all my stuff and sell it to you guys for next to nothing or slang it on ebay. Id rather make $10 off of it or give it away than to give it to any dealership or custom shop because they are only going to resale it after they sell it the first time.

 

Think about this....
If you ever plan to trade your bike in for another, you will want to put back on as many stock parts as possible.
They dont give you anything for your mods

 

Sold my 2010 RG 2into1 exhaust parts to a fellow forum member for $325 and four days later, the take-off Streamliner passenger pegs on eBay for $110.

Never hurts to try. Just lucky, I guess...

 

I used to keep every thing, now I either give it away or throw it away.
