Just installed my new akrapovic full system. Should I try to sell the stock or just recycle it? What's the going rate if there is any value?

MOD - how do I delete this post? Or can you move it to the parts section plz? Accidentally posted in the wrong section -sorry.

Moved over to parts...

As to your question... I sold mine for $300 but that was back when there weren't many available (2010). I don't think you'd get that today. At that point, if you have a place to store it, you're almost better off keeping it, and then putting it back on when you go to sell the bike. Then sell the Akra to someone on here for $600-ish or so. If you sell your bike down the road w/mods (exhaust and other things), you'll never get your money back out. My experience has been that mods just hedge your bet to get full book out of the bike. So if you have the storage and you have the time, stripping the mods when you go to sell the bike and selling those things seperate is the way to go. Personally I don't have much of either (time or space) so I usually just figure it's (taking the hit when selling w/the mods) the cost of having fun and having my bike the way I like it.
