    I have decided that the cruising life isn't for me. What roughly should I expect for my 2016 America with about 3500 on the clock and all of these extras?
    All genuine Triumph parts include......
    Spot lights on bar with indicators (original indicators available) £354.00
    Short quick release screen. £280.00
    Short slash cut fast flow exhausts. £280.00
    Rider footplates £195.00
    Passenger foot plates. £165.00
    Engine crash bars. £175.00
    Leather tank bib. £55.00
    Triumph tank knee pads. £55.00
    Taco unit. £110.00
    Triumph alarm. £295.00
    Low sissy bar £250.00
    Back rack. £145.00
    Leather paniers. £340.00

    Non Triumph extras include........
    Union Jack gear selector guide and dresser kit £37.50
    Union jack reservoir cover £20.00
    Union jack bar ends. £16.75
    Union jack oil filler cap £32.00
    Leather tool roll £25.00
    Pannier supports. £49.00
    Orthopaedic gel pads in both seats £95.00

    Small leather back bag £45.00

    The bike also benefits from a stage one torque induction tune from Triumph Twin Power, making it smoother through the gears, more power and torque and less popping and spluttering on over run. No unwanted engine dying! £300.00

    Hi ken, unfortunately extras don’t up the value of a bike by any way near as much as they cost, some people say it makes it harder to sell but in my humble opinion I think it makes it easier. They would be worth more if taken off and sold separately. If you can put up with the hassle. My bro bought a bog standard 2016 with screen and panniers similar sort of mileage last year for around 6300 from a dealer.

    gotta agree with Crispey above extra's don't mean extra dosh just maybe easier to sell on but not at an inflated price. :(

    Thanks for the help gents. I am trying to buy a Tiger 1050 sport and was hoping for around 7k to put towards it. Taking some of the extras off might be a plan. Cheers

    Agree with above - remove all extras make bog standard and sell your exess parts either on the forum or flea bay. I will be stripping back one of my Rockets soon as similar problem.
