Most guys I know bought turbo's and immediately went to work making them straight line sleds. The tinkering is the fun part, the thrill is short lived. It's like a jet ski on an inland lake. It's fun for about 10 minutes.
This on the other hand, looks fun. Trust you pilot.
I would think any 2-stroke turbo would lose its value quickly.
race rocket riders who buy them, and a shorter life span 2-stroke engine.
its a toy, not an investment.
As for investments, I'd much rather risk the ups and downs of the market instead of having cash stuffed in a mattress that depreciates in buying power every year thanks to inflation. If your savings are not growing equal to the inflation rate you're losing money. That being said, buying stocks without understanding what you're actually buying is called gambling, not investing.
Most dealers that I know are finding that a turbo isnt worth any more than an NA version when you go to sell them used. Polaris BOOSTs are depreciating even worse by the looks of things.
There has to be a big difference in price as all those 24s are now out of warranty and a new 26 has 4 years of coverage.
