Does anyone on here have access to the book prices for motorbikes?

I'm interested in what my MT would be worth as a trade in.

March 2014 bike, 3500 miles. Decent condition!

Only real way is try a dealer the book is only a guide and it makes a big
difference on what you are buying and how keen they are to shift it, it's coming
winter and year change so theres could be bragines to be had. looking at bike
trader there are lots SH at £4999 but not many below that.
When I PX my last bike for the MT the book said £900 I ended up paying £2999
inc screen and carrier, another dealer offered £2600 in px both showed me the book price.

Looking at my options Will. The MT is a great bike and has been a great first bike for me. But I've had a thing for Triumph Street Triples since before passing my test.

I was planning to perhaps get one next year. But have seen a very good deal on one that could save me money in the long run vs. Trading in next year.

I may end up with two bikes for a while and probably wanting to keep both... :-S

The trade price from the CAP book isn't great. About £3.5k for mine. But a lot of that is VAT loss so say the dealers.

I might sell mine privately, or to a relative next year rather than trade in.
