Motorcycle Manufacturing in Europe industry analysis

The Motorcycle Manufacturing industry is steadily growing, helped by a booming downstream motorcycle market. Manufacturers mainly provide final goods to dealers, both domestic and international, although some offer intermediate goods for motorcycle manufacturers and parts resellers. First-time buyers of motorcycles and younger customers are increasingly purchasing bikes with smaller engine capacity to avoid sharp spikes in fuel prices, driving up revenue. Over the five years through 2024, revenue is expected to rise at a compound annual rate of 0.3% to €10.5 billion.
