    "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."

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