Sales of Royal Enfield motorcycles continued on a positive sentiment in October, with total sales volumes exceeding 70,000 units. In all, Royal Enfield sold 70,451 motorcycles in October 2018, although growth over the same month a year ago remained flat. The festive season should have been enthusiastic for sales of Royal Enfield motorcycles, but a strike at one of the factories may have led to a production slowdown, resulting in a slump in production of 25,000 motorcycles in September and October. Despite the workers’ strike, interest in Royal Enfield motorcycles continues to remain strong, although growth was just 1 per cent over the same month a year ago.
