I think the reason is...there's a shortage of bikes. My dealer, who's been in business in same locale since 1966, has 3 Suzuki's in stock...and two of them are ATV's...the other is a dirt bike. Inventory is low everywhere. I wonder...what would my mint condition 2017 BMW S1000RR with 20,000 miles sell for? Guesses?
but who the fk is like, ok im going to pay 10k for a 9 year old bike with 20k miles.
common sense people, YOU WONT DIE IF YOU DONT HAVE A BIKE, so lets pay the price of a brand new bike 10 years later. same with mustangs, cars etc, people are just paying anything, old cars at new car prices. and there may be a few that really need a bike, but 99% of them just have an excess of money that was free to them from all the unemployment/welfare handouts in america.
I live near the hood, straight up welfare galore, they always drove around beat up cars, duck tape bumpers etc, been here 10 years. 1 year later, they are all driving chargers, challengers, escalades, impalas, then further down road, they are all on like those giant dub rims etc, black tint, no license plates.
I mean, in a way I would like to think it was a great thing for my area, as now we dont have hazards on the road, but I guarantee you they paid doubled what the vehicles was worth, but why not? free money right?
yeah im spiteful, I hate the people in my area, its so bad. run red lights, dont stop at stop signs, triple speed limit, shoplifting broad day light, police will not respond, I saw a person going car to car trying to open car doors, (I had my wallet jacked twice) and the cops said, "did he hurt you" I said no. they said, leave him alone.
I said da fuq? go talk to him, they said sir, no. we have better things to do. "BETTER THAN LETTING A DUDE STEAL ****"? it isnt a priority here. crimes accepted, and thats why I have a full on loaded shotgun waiting for someone to enter my home. not even thinking twice.literally all the stores shutdown, malls left, nothing but crime and drugs here. if you googled my little area its just murders, shootings, robbing, gang shootings, etc.. people have metal bars on their windows.
its so bad. oh and about the comment thinking it would benefit the area right? no. the areas are all still run down, just now have a nice car in front of the areas.
