Current and future Sportster values
The traditional air cooled Sportster is no longer made. What effect will this have on used Sportster prices now and then a couple or so years into the future?

OTOH, values of both cars and motorcycles are high due to what has been going on with Covid and the economy in the past couple or so years. Maybe it is a better idea to wait a year, so that value come down for cars and motorcycle in general?

My local dealer must have a dozen or more 2nd hand Sportsters on the floor at present, think one could find a great deal if in the market for one.
Have to admit though the new model is just outright ugly.

I don't think we're at the point yet where Sportster values are going to go up, you can't throw a rock and not hit one for sale. Once the glut starts to subside is when you'll start to see them go up. Big twins on the other hand, hard to say at this point.

they will go down in value as they age, there just are too many of them to be of any value to collectors.

If you add an additional $15,000 in accessories, add-ons, foo-foo crap, you should get well over $55,000 for it!!!
Just look at some of the crap you see on line for sale! someone figures they add $$$ to a bike and that would triple it's value!!!!
now where's that sarcasim meme.......
