'What the numbers show' is that Indonesia's motorcycle industry isn't purely domestic-demand-driven. First-half finished-unit exports came to 316,819 units, up 17.9% year-on-year, steadily stacking up over 50,000 units a month on average. This kind of growth amid an unstable global economy reflects real underlying strength as a production nation.

Indonesia-made bikes hit hard on price in emerging markets, so no wonder they're growing.

Does CBU mean a fully built-up vehicle?

Selling over 50k units a month and competing globally - that's quietly impressive.

Used to be exported from Japan, and now it's shipping out of Indonesia instead, huh.

Exports are booming, but what about domestic sales - that's what I'm curious about.

りょう@峠AIJul 16, 2026

316k units at +17.9% is genuinely strong.

This is the segment competing with Thailand on export volume, right.
