New motorcycle registrations May 2023

 

Will the alarm bells ring in Munich? Probably not, because BMW Motorrad breaks one sales record after another, which is mainly due to the very good sales abroad. In Germany, however, the market share has slipped to 15.9% if you look at the new registrations of motorcycles (everything except 125cc and scooters). However, the new GS and other new models from Bavaria will still come in 2023. This is probably one of the reasons why one or the other potential buyer may be holding back on buying a new BMW at the moment. In any case, since our "records" (= launch of the website in Sept. 2018), BMW has always been number 1 in terms of market share. In this respect: Congratulations Honda, everything done right!
 

 
The fact that the two Honda models have taken such a hit is probably mainly due to the sharply calculated prices for the Hornet and the Transalp. So much motorcycle for so little money is currently only available from lesser-known brands. Will Suzuki be similarly successful with the GSX-8S and the V-Strom 800 DE? We'll see that next month, when the sales figures for these two new bikes will also be reliable. In any case, there is a lot of movement and a breath of fresh air in the new middle class - that's a good thing!
