New motorcycle registrations June 2023

 

If you look at the most popular models, there are also a few surprises: The Honda CMX 500 Rebel is in 4th place, just behind the new Transalp 750! In general, Honda can accommodate five models in the top 10 - runs at the Japanese. Kawasaki is happy about the perennial favorites Z900 and Z650, which will probably still be in the top 5 in 100 years. The Honda Hornet 750 continues to annoy the Yamaha MT-07 and is just ahead of it, but only with seven more units sold. Another surprise is the Aprilia RS 660 in 11th place.

 

 

Overall, there is a trend towards the middle class: In the top 20 there are only 3 motorcycles with a displacement over 900 cc - all others are at 800 cc and less. The mid-range bikes are cheaper than higher-displacement models, so buyers are looking more and more at the price. No wonder, with increased inflation and lower purchasing power. Only the BMW R 1250 GS seems to be subject to different laws. She is still in 1st place with 562 newly registered bikes. Nevertheless, the time for the R 1300 GS is becoming more and more urgent, otherwise BMW will probably soon be caught up by Kawasaki in terms of market share.
