Want evidence? Go to dealerships and look... And yes, metrics lose a much higher % of their value than HD's... I dont need numbers, its simple math.

My bike was 23k. Right now I can get 17k on trade (I checked), and could easily sell it for that.

A metric will be worth less than half what it was new in the same time frame, aside from the goldwing.

by this evidence we should all sell our cages for 60's musclecars cause even though you are paying through the ass for a technologically inferior, heavy, ill handling beast you can probably get your money back on resale

Your 954rr is technologically inferior, you better get rid of that right away!

My harley is as good, if not better, than any Japanese cruiser on the market. And, much, much nicer to look at.

that track wont work. My bike is the last of its kind and the other two were opportunity. Besides i was attacking your concept not your bike. Though i suppose ill admit to some brand insults in my analogy if you re-read it ugly wasnt one of them

All im saying is, that I bet if you took my bike out for the day, you'd have fun with it.

No, it doesnt have the power of a sportbike, and it has a totally different feel. But its still fun.

And, if your paying attention to the other thread, you know I wanna get rid of it for a Busa. So I do understand what your saying.

im sure i would, ive enjoyed my friends sporty and vrod. For what they are anyway. My only issue was the concept of basing the purchase decision on the resale value

Calling me a douche? Hmmm....

So you said... and my response was what? HD should sponsor poker play. Cause they handled the whole thing wonderfully. Scammed out that money.
