Looking online across the USA, I see very few 1000SX's for sale. There are, however, some H2 SE's and a bunch of ZX-10R's listed for sale. Why do YOU think that is?
I rode a bunch of bikes at IMS a few weeks ago. Some I liked, some I didn't. Only ONE model made me pause with the thought that it felt really amazing - the 2021 Ninja 1000SX. It honestly feels like it was custom-built for me personally. I've ridden a great many motorcycles over four decades and I can count on the fingers of one hand the times that I've been so impressed. I like my 2021 Yamaha MT-09 very much and it suits the kind of local, short-hop riding that I do but the 1000SX is a completely different class of motorcycle.
- The ZX-10R has vastly outsold the 1000SX so there are more used units for sale?
- The ZX-10R was sold to a younger, less stable owner population leading to higher turnover?
- 1000SX owners love their bikes and rarely sell or upgrade?
- Used 1000SX's are sold more by word-of-mouth than thru being listed for sale online?
