February 28th to March 3rd
The Istanbul Expo Centre will host the sixth edition of the Eurasia Moto Bike Expo for four days, starting February 28th.
Supported by Turkish motorcycle industry trade association MOTED (www.moted.net) and many major OEs and their importers/distributors, last year saw over 80,000 consumers visit the three exhibition halls filled by the show.
Those OEs included Yamaha, Suzuki, KTM, BMW, Ducati and Honda alongside domestic parts and accessory manufacturers and importers.
Turkey is Europe’s fifth largest motorcycle market, with 1,441,066 total PTWs in circulation at the end of 2012.
Data captured by Brussels based motorcycle industry association ACEM suggests that the market there has remained stable throughout the downturn, having grown by some 1.2 million additional PTWs in use since 2005.
Indeed in 2013 Turkey was the fourth largest market in terms of new PTW registrations at 164,132 units, the market having peaked at 193,606 in 2011.
