Hopefully a lot of people buy on a whim and then get tired of them!
Doubt it. The ones I know that went for sale were still strong money (£2k) and most people who've bought them don't see them as a huge financial loss if they only ride them a hand full of times per year.
I financed mine over 4 years at 0% and pay £55 a month. The bikes were a little cheaper then than they are now, but demand is still high and Honda just can't keep hold of the stock they are recieving.
