    Wow, does Malaysia realy have so many bikes. Or is that counting the old black-n-white ones that haven't been ridden for decades? I know I'm doing my part - I got 4 at home.

    No, i believe that the stats are based on the sales of bikes from bike shops, hypermarkets etc.

    Ok..Keep riding those bikes dude!
