Selling my 2014 CB1100 Deluxe

If Honda never brings them back, I predict that pristine deluxe models will hold their value well.
Just look at the Transalp, Hawk GT, CB-1, RC30, CBX, GB500, CT500 Turbo, and many other "weird, obscure" Hondas that were showroom failures in the U.S. and 20 years later are still selling for a large percentage, or much more, than their original MSRP.

Look how many here have mentioned looking for one or regret not getting one over the standard. I feel lucky to have found mine in like new condition.
I think your point is valid but my gut tells me it may not be the case with the CB1100, simply because the bike mostly appeals to older riders seeking to recapture the vibe of the '70's and '80's (generalizing here), not to younger riders who have no connection to those times. In 20 years, those same older motorcyclists may no longer be buying bikes. The bikes you mentioned appealed to younger riders when they were first introduced, the same folks who are collecting them today, 20 years later. Again, I'm generalizing. Anyone here want to buy a mint '49 Ford Woody? I didn't think so. That's a car our fathers and grandfathers were nuts about, not us.
