You probably have an idea of what your bike is worth that includes the cost of the extras, my experience is that dealers or private buyers don't see much value in these extras (and some prefer a stock bike that they can modify themselves).
If you don't mind the inconvenience of removing the parts then you probably will make a bit more money by selling them separately.

the tec springs are an improvement, and worth it. Easy to fit and not very expensive, although if you go further buy a better handling bike, like a street triple etc.Hi,
yeah as above.. On a side note do you think the Tec progressive fork springs were worth it/ any good?
not sure yet, im fancying a hypermotard at the moment.Agreed, I usually return my bikes to standard when selling and then I sell the surplus parts on eBay or through forums.
What are you getting instead?
normally i agree, although i have made proper mods to improve the bike instead of the pointless cosmetic ones most folks do on the forums

Yes, and sell me the shocks ..
Jokes aside, yes I feel like you wouldn't get the full value of the parts - and I'd defo be interested in the shocks if they're a fair price, we could even do a direct swap if we're close and you need orginal parts.

I personally would leave them on. I left all my mods on the bike when selling, and was a much more extensive list than yours. Some of them I could have gotten a decent price selling separately, but I didn’t want to deal with the hassle and used up garage space keeping them around, and it could help yours sell over another that is stock. It certainly helped me get more for the bike than I paid for it. The rear shock and exhaust might be the only things I’d remove and sell separately, if you can do the labor yourself.
they are a slight improvement, and not expensiveHi,

Yeah I have looked at the Tec spring deal. I think I can get a better spring more suited to my weight, then use with pre-load adjusters and some new oil.
