I have just written a review on this bike and as Nate has mentioned it does keep it´s resale value but where you will really enjoy the bike is it´s handling and breaks. The engine is a real goer as well but not at top end. you won´t squeeze any more than 190 out of it and it´s not really happy after 170. There are few as good in the wet. you´ll rip past everything. All bikes have there good and bad but overall this is a good one.
