They are not that expensive, you get the warranty, the resale stays high, and you can take solace in the fact that it hasn't been owned by some complete idiot of a new rider. Obviously there are complete idiots everywhere, but the guys buying their first sportbike are probably a little more likely to be fuckwits than average.
Too bad they don't make them anymore...
