Motorbikes to Cost More

The price of a motorbike is set to increase in 2009 due to the cost of materials, such as aluminium and steel, and increased shipping fees. It's also expected for these higher prices to last into 2010, according to the Retail Motor Industry Federation. The weakening pound against the euro is also being blamed.

Motorists who are considering to buy a bike are advised to buy one sooner than later. Hmmm... I think I need to get a Harley... now.
