Georgia, west of Atlanta | Third Quarter Performance Summary (in thousands except per share data)

Product line sales 2012 2011 Change 2012 2011 Change

Parts, Garments & Accessories 128,638 112,861 14% 329,211 296,100 11%
Total Sales $ 879,939 $ 729,861 +21 $ 2,309,135 $ 1,874,980 +23%
On Road vehicles: $63,396,000
If we assume an average price of $18,000 that would be 3522 motorcycles sold in 3rd quarter. Does that seem right? if so around 14,000 motorcycles for the year. Not nearly the sales of HD but a respectable number and it keeps going up. I can see Victory selling 20,000 bikes a year by 2015-2016.

Jasper, MO | Doesn't Polaris include the GEM electric vehicles and some other stuff in their On Road Sales figures?

Peru, IN | It would be nice if Polaris wasn't so secretive about their sales figures. I'm not sure what it would hurt if they published that. | |

Georgia, west of Atlanta | Yes it would be nice if they would just tell number of motorcycles. Maybe I'm off and they don't sell 10,000 a year. You would think they would be extremely proud of any number north of 10,000. Maybe at the factory they would tell how many engines or bikes are made per day during the tour.
I was at the HD factory this summer, they were proud to say they make 500 engines per day and only work weekdays, no weekend work because of doubletime, ( it's a union job you know ). | |

Grand Cane, LA | Well now you're assuming that the sales through the first and last quarter of a year has the same amount of sales which it won't. Hardly any sales happen during the winter months for road bikes. | |
