I heard the same from many friends. This is my 4th car that i've financed and i've had a car payment ever since i was 20...so it's going on almost 8 years of continuous car payments...and it's gone up a considerable amount every single time....

Since I bought my 08 F in May 2011 I've put approx. 8K miles on it, and the car has BARELY depreciated. It's negligible - I'm using cars.com as a comparison tool, I just look for 08 F's with the similar mileage and see the prices they're going for, and it's around the same I bought it for last year. The rarity of the ISF helps the car hold its value well. Even with your mileage I wouldn't be concerned, the car is meant to be driven and won't depreciate like a Maserati.

Pretty much lol. It was my only mode of transport. I commuted from Palm Springs to Hemet approx 70 miles to work each day. Then approx 300 miles roundtrip riding to Willows Springs to work at the track on the weekends. The worst part being, my 9-5 job was driving a big rig lol, so I was literally on the road non-stop, 18/7. It def sucked at times.
What's ironic, and to get kind of back on topic regarding depreciation/mileage, I ended up getting $200 more for the CBR600 after 139K miles than I had bought it for originally. I've found that bikes are different than cars that way - custom paint, clean mods, and proper records of maintenance go a long way in getting your money back out of them.
Lol I've actually still got pictures of it floating around somewhere...
