I sold my 2006 sport 1000, with about 500 miles on it, for about 8K last year. No doubt they are even less now. Really dug it for the most part, but riding position was pretty rough on the wrists (I'm told risers help -- newer bikes have higher bars from the factory). Turn-in seemed a bit non-linear to me, but no doubt that can be dialed in by those with more know-how than me. Great look/sound, plenty of torque. Not as 'balanced' as the 600 supersport I had, which just loved the canyon roads -- sport 1000 seemed like more of a 'muscle-bike' if you will.
