No Tod, that is the actual number of bikes registered on the road and SORN'd, not quarterly sales figures, those you need to extrapolate. So take 2016 for example, from Q1 to Q2 it looks like they sold 21 extra bikes but in reality 11 came back out of storage in the same period so they only actually sold and registered another 10. The other anomaly is that a bike could of been written off in that period, the stats don't tell us that so the new sales figure in that case would be one higher for each bike written off. So the sales figures are actually quite small for a country with a large population. It means, at the last count, there are currently only 112 CB1100 A-D's on the road in the UK, a very exclusive club! It also means there are 69 of the new paintjob (mudguards and side panels) CB1100 EX models on the road.
