ZX-6R tops sales charts for 2002 so far

Latest sales figures show Kawasaki’s ZX-6R is top of the charts for a second month running.

Much of that is down to heavy discounting as dealers clear the way for the new 636cc version.

Here’s the top 20 bikes, over 125cc, to the end of February.

1. Kawasaki ZX-6R (305). 2. Yamaha Fazer 600 (223). 3. Yamaha R6 (199). 4. Honda CBR600 F (181). 5. Yamaha R1 (174). 6. Suzuki GSX-R600 (154). 7. Suzuki DR-Z400 E-K2 (114). 8. Suzuki GSX 1400 (93). 9. Honda VFR800 (92), 10. Honda Hornet 900 (88). 11. Suzuki DR-Z400 S (88). 12. Yamaha Fazer 1000 (81). 13. Honda Deauville (79). 14. Suzuki Bandit 600 (77). 15. Suzuki GSF 600 S (69). 16. Honda VFR 800 A-2 (65), 17. BMW R1150GS (65). 18. CCM 604 E Supermoto (55). 19. BMW R1150RT (49). 20. Yamaha FJR 1300 (32).
