Do accessories add to trade-in value?

I am at the point now that I want to add some accessories to my Shadow. When I bought it, it already had the chrome and rubber grips, sissy bar with backrest, and chrome luggage rack. I am thinking of adding a smallish windshield and a Saddlemen medium fastback sissy bar bag. BUT...I also have in the back of my mind the possibility of trading the bike in at the end of summer for an adventure bike which would not use any of these accessories. Would these accessories add anything to the trade-in value?
