I was surprised at the low numbers of Uly's and other Buells sold over the years as indicated in the latest Fuel issue. 6500 Uly's seams really low to me. How many motorcycles are sold in general? BMW GS's, Suzuki DL's. Is participation in Motorcycling really that low?

Just curious.

Buell is only about 3% of Harleys total sales in any one year.

Harley outsells all other brands (Combined) in the over 650 CC USA market.
They sell over 350,000 units world wide in a year. So Buell sells about 10,000 units world wide.

It was cool to see the numbers in Fuell. It explains why many people like to look at my machine (besides it being awesome), they simply do not see many.

Based on 1st quarter sales, Buell, who makes up 0.7% of total motorcycle market share, is looking at a projected
27% sales increase from 4786 in 2007 to 6067 in 2008. (Source 08/2008 ed. MCN)

Anyone knowing how many Ulys are in Germany? I think there are not even 100?
I know in Austria, there are only 7. But thats a small Country.
Ride safe Werner
