Compendium of Motorcycling Statistics: 2007 Edition
Compendium of Motorcycling Statistics
The compendium brings together information from a range of sources to provide a comprehensive picture of motorcycling in Great Britain. This is the third edition of the Compendium and includes the latest data currently available for 2006.
The publication covers all types of two-wheeled motor vehicle transport, including motorcycles, scooters and mopeds. Statistics are presented in four chapters:
1. Motorcyclists - statistics on motorcycle ownership and training;
2. Motorcycles - information about the vehicles and their characteristics;
3. Journeys made - their number, purpose and characteristics;
4. Motorcycling safety - statistics on road accidents involving motorcycles, and the associated casualties.
Notes
1. Most of the statistics in the Compendium are National Statistics. However, some of the figures included are not National Statistics - for example, the top 10 registered models in the UK from the Motor Cycle Industry Association (MCIA). These are clearly identified in the publication.
