"Record Registrations for New Motorcycles"

"The booming demand for new cars has spilled over into the Australian
motorcycle market with a seven percent rise in registrations in the first
half of 2003."

"...the latest figures confirmed a decade of growth for the motorcycle
industry, with registrations for the first half of this year topping the
full-year figure of 1993."

"The figures also told only half the story, with registrations estimated to
account for only 50% of total motorcycle sales."

"While still in fourth place, Harley-Davidson appeared to have benefited the
most from the growing popularity of motorcycles, with its registrations up
32.5% compared to the same period last year."

Honda 4533 (includes 1771 CT110s)
Yamaha 3780
Suzuki 1855
H-D 1743
Kawasaki 1688
KTM 776
BMW 709
Triumph 676
Ducati 511
Aprilia 322

What I find interesting there is if you remove the CT110s to Aus Post,
Yamaha are comfortably the number one seller.
