I think that is the best advice you’re likely to get on the vexed question of what constitutes a good deal. Best of luck with your decision.
Agreed.
The new CB1100 will cost the OP his NC700X plus $4000 cash. If we're talking pennies, clearly he'd better off selling his bike on his own, since the dealer will need to make a profit when they wholesale or resell it, which would otherwise go to the OP if he chose to sell it on his own. That's the cost of convenience.
As far as whether it's a good deal, we've seen CB1100 pricing vary dramatically across the country. It wouldn't be a good deal around here, but perhaps it reflects the motorcycle market in New Hampshire. I can't comment on the $600 dealer fees, but they're usually negotiable to some degree. If so, the trade-in value of the NC700X will be adjusted accordingly.
