I agree with your assessment. The Shadow is a low-end bike and it'll be hard to find someone who's ready to shell out five times as much for the plate as they pay for the bike, which I'm guessing will command less than 10k used. A buyer interested in this bike will be cash-constrained and unlikely even to have the price of admission for the Hu A plate. Rather, they'll be thinking "I'll go without" or "I can probably manage a Hu C..."

If you are ready to go on the YBR, you can probably disassociate the plate from the bike right now, and then start marketing the bike unplated.

How are you planning to market the Shadow?
