Moto Park Show, Russia 2014

Moto Park Show, Feb 28 to March 2, 2014

 

Staged at Moscow’s IEC “Crocus-Expo” Centre, by RTE Exhibitions, Russia’s leading annual motorcycle expo (Moto Park) will be staged in Moscow starting February 28th.

This will be the 11th annual Moto Park, and it will again be co-joined with the Moscow Custom and Tuning Show 2014, which features an AMD World Championship of Custom Bike Building affiliate custom bike show – the winners of which will be seen in competition at the AMD World Championship when it makes its INTERMOT debut in Hall 10 at Koelnmesse in October this year.




Moto Park regularly sees some 100 exhibitors and close to 80,000 visitors. Many of the leading manufacturers are represented at Moto Park, and these have included Harley-Davidson, Polaris (Victory and Indian), Honda, Yamaha, BMW, Triumph and Peugeot.

Russian market research specialist AutoStat (www.autostat.ru) reports that at the end of 2012 there were some 2.5 million motorcycles in ownership/use (the bike park) in Russia – five percent of the 47.9 million total vehicles in use there; the total population of Russia is around 144 million, of which 110 million are thought to be of riding age.

This means that an estimated 2 percent of Russia’s riding age population have a motorcycle of some kind, whereas in the EU the figure runs at something closer to 10 percent (35 million PTWs and a riding age population of approximately 380 million).
