Yeah Busas have a better resale....
but so do Hardleys....
I still ain't gonna buy either!
Resale isn't something I'd ever worry about. I figure I've got $12k "invested" into my 14. Say I put it up for sale today for $8k but take $7k for a quick sale. So what if it was a Busa I'd get $7500? Big f'n deal!
I'll keep the better bike!
Our bikes are high dollar "toys" not "investments" anyway.
People who buy Busas and Hardleys are paying more $$$ for the persona associated with those particular bikes.
"Ride a Harley Davidson... people will respect you 'cuz you look tough!"
"Roll a Busa... bitches is gonna think you a balla!"
You gotta pay the fee whether you want the persona or not.
