I searched the archives with the key word "production number" and found 4 threads including this one.
I re-read one of them, the others were too long. In the one instance I found they were talking about the production numbers of CB's being low.. translated means Honda didn't make many of them ( comparatively speaking)
Honda does not give out production or sales figures of individual motorcycles for the most part, and we can only guess that vin numbers are sequential and would give some indication of the total number built, but we can also only use the sampling of vins that are voluntarily given to us. Given that we have just over 2000 members, but only several hundred have supplied vins world wide, we really have no inkling as to how many were produced, but the lowest vin we have is 0002 a 2013 ABS from North Carolina USA and the highest 2232 a 2014 black std from California USA and we have them from over a dozen countries. It's unlikely the production number since 2010 total many more than 20,000 bikes, but that is just a guess on my part.
