Busa Re-Sale value

[BUSAZ71]

Ive noticed quite a few guys who buy busa's and turn right around and sale them. What gives? Am I missing somthin here?
These bikes should last forever, do the majority of busa owners buy them and turn around and sell them for the next best thing? Do they hold value value that well that you can just turn around and sell it for a new one.

Everyones opinion is greatly appreciated

They have the highest resale value of any sportbike.

With great power, (busa) comes great responsibility. The busa scares many to sum it up.

Fear is a big motivator.

I think it's that some people just don't enjoy riding, they buy a bike and when the newness wears off they think of what they could do with the $$. Hitting the open road is not a big deal for some, although I can't understand it

Agreed and they buy a Busa because of the hype. Once they realize they are in over their heads they sell (unless they wreck first).

They hold their value very well.

They hold their value very well.

lol, yes they do! I sold my 2000 for $7000. I just couldn't bear being without a BUS, so it only took me 4 days to buy another one! thank God for a wonderful and understanding wife!! she knew I was unhappy as soon as I sold the first one!

I hunted around for a few months for a good price on a used Busa, wasn't happening. I then started looking at the prices for a new one, the cheapest I found was $9500 OTD. Its was only about 1-2K more than a used one, so I said f*ck it and bought the new one. You won't lose too much if you decide to sell it.
