JAKARTA, Feb 12 (Reuters) - Following is Indonesia's
motorcycle sales data provided by PT Astra Honda Motor, the
largest motorcycle maker in the country.

Indonesian motorcycle sales rose 5.9 percent last year to
4.7 million units, recovering from a 12.76 percent drop in 2006
after the government more than doubled domestic fuel prices in
October 2005.

The move caused inflation to spike to around six-year highs
and prompted the central bank to hike interest rates.

Sales hit a record 5.07 million units in 2005 but dropped
to 4.43 million units in 2006. Analysts and industry experts
predict sales will top 5 million units this year.
