My thoughts
First of all, nicely put for a non-Rune owner! Very non-offensive!
Runer owners probably love the bike. Dude, that's a huge understatement! I've owned 20 something bikes and it tops the list, and no it isn't the most I've ever paid for a bike. The feel of this bike going down a nice road is nothing short of spiritual. The front end is the smoothest i've ever felt, unreal! Not to mention the roll-on torque in 4th and 5th gears. And of course the attention of the females is nice side benefit.
The Rune sales numbers are a two sided issue for me. If they don't sell well, then I'll end up with a rare unique bike in my garage. The downer will be parts availability. If they do sell well then the parts will be more available and the bike won't be so rare. Do I care about future value?
Not at all! I never buy a machine with the intention of reselling for profit or return. I buy them to ride or drive.
