There are some seriously big names in the motorcycle world that everyone pretty much knew from the start, and will more than likely outlive today’s generation of riders. You know, the likes of Yamaha, Ducati, and BMW. But as big as these names become, none of them are quite as dominant as Honda, a brand that’s pretty much been number one for half-a-century now.
Proof of this just has to be Honda’s impressive sales figures. Case in point, for the fiscal year ending in March of this year, Honda projects a total sales figure exceeding 20 million motorcycles. That’s pretty crazy. But to further put that into perspective, that figure encompasses a whopping 40% share of the global market. This leaves the remaining 60% to be shared by all the other big and small manufacturers.
I mean, seriously, Honda, leave some pie for the others.
