Hi Bobbie7
thanks for coming back to me
I am only interested in ATV and motorbikes not 4WD cars or trucks.
Also not interested in the utility segment, ie agricultural bikes & scooters,
as my market is recreation and/or competition use

do you have motorbike figures for USA & Europe?

Hi Kiblahs-ga,

Thank you for your question.


The following ATV/Dirtbike report is based on analysis of available
retail sales data through June. These state-by-state totals are
forecast figures through calendar year 2002, and include year-on-year
comparisons rather than a running total of individual monthly sales. I
highly recommend that you read the complete report here:
http://www.paatving.com/Articles/stateatvsales/pasalesstats.asp


Given that the table is in a .BMP format I made the following table
for easier viewing.
