Folks buy bikes to save money and are usually smart shoppers.
When you can pick up a nice used bike for 2-3k that can get 50-100MPG that anyone can fix as it still uses carbs...
Or a done up 10k bike that you need 3 degrees & a fat wallet to fix that cost as much as a eco shietbox car with 4 seats heat n AC.........
they went just as nuts as they did with SUV's on the fancy goodies to up the prices.
