depends on your riding needs. Both rides have good and bad issues depending on what the rider expects/demands of the ride.

Dragon said it. Look at your riding meeds, Personally i would try to sell it out outright before trading it in. stealership will hammer you on trade in value.

That is it? A moped may prove cheaper for you then.

Gotta know what makes you happy i had a couple sport bikes loved em, got myself a intruder 1400 thinking i would be happy toolin around and would make a better mount to take the wife with me... nice bike but no passion in it for me, a week or two would go bye and i would almost forget it was in the garage after a year i sold it and got another ninja, that thing doesnt go 12 hours without me in there talkin to it orgivin it a pro polish rubdown,they are two different expeirences. have you ever ridden a sport bike? If not find some one who will let you give it a try and then figure out what kinda ride makes you wanna ride even when its easier to just take the car. the wifes much happier with my choice also even on that crazy perch they call a passenger seat
