Australian Motorcycle Market 2016

[Cormanus]

For those interested in sales statistics, Australia had the best motorcycle sales in seven years in 2016 with Honda the leading manufacturer with 22.9% of the motorcycle and ATV market in Australia.

Harley Davidson was the biggest seller in the road bike category selling more than 10,000 motorcycles and claiming 21.5% of the market.

Of interest, the biggest selling Honda was the NBC110, or the postie. That's a scooter available only to postal contractors and not available to the general public.

Read all about it here. The report includes tables of the top 10 sellers in various categories.

That NBC110 Super Cub looks like a pretty neat little bike. I wouldn't mind spending the day delivering mail on one of those.

Flyn, people do some extraordinary things on posties. See this web site for a laugh or two.

Great!
Who needs a$20,000 adventure bike anyway.

Um, is it safe without ABS?

Very cool! That is a great example of what you can do with a rugged little bike.

Just finished watching the last one. What great fun and a testimonial to the little posties and the people who ride them.
