Motorcycle registrations September 2019
Better than in the previous year
Motorcycle registrations in September in 2019 increased by 6.88 percent compared to 2018. This is astonishing in that new registrations in August were still down 8.51 percent compared to the previous year's figures. For the full year 2019, the balance sheet so far is still positive: 7.28% is an increase compared to the new registrations in 2018 (Jan - Sep).
