"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."
