Watched most of it, at 1.75 speed (you can click on the toothed gear symbol at the bottom of a video and then select a speed setting).
His point: he says that many people he knows lusted after specific grail bikes for their looks and gave no or little thought to how they would ride and then found themselves disappointed with the reality that the bikes didn't ride differently from what they already have, or not differently enough, and so sold the bikes on.
As usual with such idiosyncratic sweeping statements, his "many people" probably represents two people, if that many. Or maybe he just came up with his own conjecture concerning why someone he once saw riding an older high-end bike is now riding a newer bike.
If that video is representative of the depth of his thinking, I'll save myself the trouble of looking at other videos from him.
