Anyone know or care to guess what bike (over 125cc) has sold the most in the UK in the last 20 years?

Hmmm, 20 years is a long time, spans nearly 10 generations of some bikes. To clarify would you include for example all fireblades made in the last 20 years, or count each generation separately?

Trevor do you know the answer or are you just making us have wild stabs at a guess?

going to chuck in an oddball one, hehe

my guess would be an Armstrong MT350

[Rogerborg]

I'd change the title to "over 125" if you don't want to read "CG125" a lot.

Dunno, going by model name, hmm... CBR600F?

MCIA might know, and could possibly even tell you for the right amount of dollah. There's no gubmint figures that I'm aware of.

I see a hell of a lot of ninjas, but to be honest, I aint got a clue what would have sold best over the last 20 years.

Failing that, something by Honda, probably the CBR600f.

It does rather depend on what your describe as 'a bike'.
Even the CG changed a fair bit.

GSXR750 might be a good shout if we're talking about a model designation because there's been a bike for sale for the entire 20 years with that designation (CG stopped a while ago, of course), though not sure the 750 has done that well recently.
But then, are we including grey and parallel imports? You can probably still buy a new CG imported from Africa or something.

Similarly if you count 'fireblade', but of course that was also referred to by cbr(X)xxx, which has changed.
