I too really struggled with this when realising an XR400 isn't a £1.5k bike anymore. In the end felt more comfortable buying a newer bike that was coming down in price than something 20+ that was almost the same value.
I think being a bike that will have been, and will continue to be dropped etc makes this all even harder to process. My CRF450L is brilliant, but also cost 6.5k so yeah it's a hard one.
