Despite, or perhaps because of (discuss), the upheavals caused by the pandemic, motorbike sales in 2021 saw a very healthy increase of almost 10% compared to the previous year.
To put that into some sort of context, cars sales for the same period were up just 1%.
The figures, from the Motorcycle Industry Association, show that there were more 114,300 new bikes registered in 2021 – the highest number since 2016.
