From a market perspective, Indonesia is one of the world's foremost motorcycle powerhouses. First-half wholesale figures topping 3.1 million units show just how unshakable demand for bikes as daily transportation really is. A market led by scooters, this is a place the whole world should watch closely alongside the shift toward electrification. I see the numbers coming out of here as a thermometer for Asia's entire motorcycle economy.

Wholesale unit figures include inventory, so it's totally normal for them to diverge from actual retail sales.

Exactly, dealer channel-stuffing can inflate the numbers, so don't put too much stock in them.

If most of this is still gas scooters, the room for electrification growth is enormous.

Honda's EM1 still hasn't caught on much at all - this is really a market still ahead of it.

In Indonesia scooters are the daily commute vehicle, so the market's resilient to economic swings.

3.1 million units in H1, averaging over 500k a month - that's a monster of a market.
