                    [Summary] => The problem of second-hand imports is not limited to automobiles.


Apparently, even the motorcycle industry has been adversely affected by importation of second-hand motorcycles from China.


According to the Department of Trade and Industry, the importation of second-hand and brand imitation motorcycles has reportedly affected sales and production of local motorcycle companies.


Motorcycle sales amounted to only 48,340 units from January to March this year, 1,803 units or 3.6 percent lower than the 50,143 units sold during the first three months of 2001.

                    [Summary] => For years, Honda Philippines has searched for a motorcycle that would catch the fancy of most Filipinos. It tried the Trendy, a moped that it launched in the early ’90s, with actress Gretchen Barretto as image model. It was a big hit, but not big enough. It tried the C70, the world’s bestselling bike, but didn’t get the response it was aiming for. It tried again with the Dream, then the Wave, yet still, there seems to be a missing ingredient.


Now comes another bike – the XRM 110. And Honda is hoping that this could be "it."
