M/C News has published the list of the top 10 bikes sold so far this year. No real suprises, I guess.

Touring: Yamaha FJR1300A
Cruiser: Harley Davidson FXSTI
Sports: Yamaha YZF-R1 (Very closely followed by R-6)
Sports/Tourer: Honda CBR1100XX
Naked: Suzuki GSX1400

The overall top 10 were nearly all off road bikes.

i will be very interested to see how much Suzukis new M10 puts a dent in the cruiser figures...awsome looker and goes very well,At $20000 its got to be worth a hard look compared to the similar Harley.

I never credited the Aussies for having discerning taste, but it looks like a re-think and apology is due, hehe

Honda CT110 is the top seller - when are people going to admit the Honda stepthrough is the best bike in the world?

No argument with that at all. I'm seriously considering doing the "Postie Challenge" through the Aussie outback on one in 2008. It would be one heck of an adventure.

is that the old postie bike Motu?remember reading an article in an aussie mag how all these guys with those things get together in the outback and go for days on the things.

Admittedly the figures are up because it's the Postie bike,and they may have bought all the bikes for the next five years yesterday - but why don't they use something else? It's the best product for the purpose,end of story.
