2021 145,246 units, still well below the >200k units of a few years ago.

Contrast this to Honda who produced 16.8million bikes in 2021, also down, from around 20million units, a couple of years back.

Unless I missed it somewhere the data the link goes to says 2020 not 2021.

16.8 million bikes is hard to believe. Link? I don't think 17 million CARS were sold last year globally.

I corrected the Harley-Davidson link in my post above.

Honda volume, by far would be made up of small 125cc bikes and scooters, predominantly sold in Asia. Still quite impressive to sell upwards of 15m units per year, must also yield a lot of synergies across the range.

Harley still owns the big bike market.
At one point, they were out selling all the other brands combined
(over 800 cc)
