Reading the table
Used median. Lower is better for a buyer, higher for a seller. Either way, the side with the lower median is the more accessible bike at any given budget.
25th / 75th percentile. The realistic negotiation range. A bike at its 25th is well-priced; at the 75th, the seller needs to justify the premium with condition, build, or provenance.
Active listings + sample size. Depth signals. The side with more live inventory is easier to find in your size; the side with more historical sample has more trustworthy percentiles.
% of MSRP retained. The honest depreciation number. A model retaining 90% has barely moved since new; a model at 40% has finished its first depreciation phase and is closer to its used-market floor.
