Because I've run into so many people that simply don't do maintenance on their motorcycles whatsoever.

Or they wheelie it all the time and come down hard once or twice.

Or they drop it and tweak the subframe a bit but replace the plastics and bar ends and whistle like nothing happened.

On a car, its just not as big a deal IMO, but on a bike... I dunno, I think its worthwhile if I keep it for a long time. I have been watching craigslist though.
