Honda SCL500 Depreciation & Resale Value

Honda SCL500 keeps an estimated 83% of its value after 5 years — #33 of 1005 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Honda SCL500 retains an estimated 83% of its value after five years, ranking #33 of 1005 powersports vehicles we track. That is 17 points above the 65% five-year average for Standard in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Honda SCL500 sheds about 4% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $6,999 it falls to around $5,788 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,211, about $0.66 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Honda SCL500 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
