- When did the fellow say prices crashed? I cant picture a discussion of prices crashing without any dates being mentioned.
- I know of no credible source of used Harley value trends.
- Unless someone has this data, all replies will be conjecture. Even if they have info on a specific dealer.
- NEW unit sales volumes and trends are available for HD and the entire motorcycle industry by using google.
- I think used sales volumes will track with new unit volumes.
- When there is abrupt drop in sales volumes PRICES will be pressured.
- If Im right, that would be soon after around 2006.

- Who cares when it happened?

It's a depreciating assest, it will go down a little every day. Oh, and all those thousand's of $$$ you sunk in making it faster, shinier, cooler....well that stuff is worth about zero after you install it. I do it too!

This. Looking back, history will record the late ‘80’s-early ‘90’s as an anomaly caused by a perfect storm of aging baby boomers deciding that a new Harley was a “must have” combined with limited production capacity. Unfortunately many still cling to the idea of the “good old days” when you could buy a new Harley, ride it a few teasers and sell it at a profit.
