Always strip the bits off and sell them separately :thumb

I would take most off and sell on this forum. The issue you'll have is with the WESA - do you have the original shocks (and are they OK) to put back to OEM spec? Then there's the cost of doing so in terms of refitting the ESA electronics to the stock shock. Doable that way if the OEM shocks are OK, but if not you're either going to have to get them repaired or replaced. All the better if you can find someone to do a swap and pay you the difference.
 
Disagree

If you are trading in sell the bits. But there is bound to be a lot of people selling to buy the new LC, so your bike with all the parts on will make it stand out.
 
I always take the accessories of. But I leave on anything that came as one of the packs e.g the drivings lamps.

The dealers never seem to be to bothered (as long as you make it clear on the trade in negotiation). The trade in price variation is inevitably slightly lower but is invariably more than compensated by what you can sell the bits on Ebay for.

Also you may want some of the parts to fit the new bike anyway e.g. the zumo 660.
