Harglo Performance, the UK’s longest established supplier of European junior motorcycles, has greeted the Home Office crackdown on illegal mini bikes with enthusiasm. An estimated 300,000 mini motorcycles have been imported into the UK from China over the past two years, many selling for as little as £100 and this has devastated sales of children’s motorcycles from established European factories, which are often considerably more expensive. Industry experts calculate that sales of these have declined by 80-90% during the period 2003-2005, a decline so dramatic that few manufacturers will be able to sustain production for much longer.
