Do yourself a favour and get a LiFePO4 battery - longer life, better cranking, lose 4kg dead weight, and throw away your battery tender.
Kev, it can't be very much.
RE of Albany (NY) is selling brand new M350 bumblebees like ours for $4,699. That's out the door -- NO shipping charge tacked on -- just a modest DMV fee that doesn't go to them, same with tax. If you're out of state, neither of those charges.
And if they have some '22 leftovers in stock, what do you figure? Another thousand below that?
Out of curiosity and to give you some possibly more meaningful data, I just went on CycleTrader, entered Royal Enfield Meteor 350, and then said to sort by lowest price. Here's the result:

What you have are a couple of at c. $3,000, then $3,500, then $3,700 ...
And those are for NEW bikes! And it looks like there's no shipping charge, dealer prep, etc., on those lowest cost ones.
So, if you were in the market, would you pay that much for a used one, and with only some of the warranty remaining?
I think you would have to price it really low, almost to the point of might-as-well-keep-it-as-a-backup (or just not expect to get more than a couple thou).
I've sold two bikes privately over the years, but prefer to trade-in, if I'm really not keeping a bike as a backup. Here in NY, trading in a vehicle saves you some tax, as the you pay on the difference when getting a new vehicle. That makes up for a possibly higher sale amount you might get selling privately, plus you avoid the time, effort, possible scams, possible casing of your house, etc., associated with private sales.
What do you have in mind, if I may ask, what are you checking out, for a replacement to the bumblebee?
