Sources please...the bullshit in this post is just insane.

Do you really think that in Q1 of 2011 Galaxy produced 48,111 motorcycles?

Do the math YTD (year to date) March = 1st 90 days of the year.

48,111 units / 90 days = 534 units per day, with no days off. 534 units per day / 24 hours = 22 Galaxy's per hour.

Completely, absolutely, impossible.

I think your numbers relate to Yinhe, not Galaxy, even then, I find them suspect as I've been in their facilities many times and don't believe they are processing 534 units per day.

BTW, what's your point of making this thread?

Cheers!

The number are the totals for Yinhe according to the Statistical reports on the above website.
Galaxy’s numbers would be fractional of the Yinhe totals, but would be part of the totals as they are part of that company.

Details the industry’s production in quarterly reports, it list them in a top 50; in production and also as a subset exports.

It also details the industry as a whole in production volumes by engine displacement (whole units), engines only and also three wheeled vehicles.

Selling more implies success in the markets, selling less implies less success in the markets. Implying that total unit volumes do not matter implies the markets are mindless. However it is possible to sell less and improve the overall quality of the offering.

I am not seeing any improvements in the offerings only better pictures on the Galaxy website…. They added some better images and I created a thread…if they offered or did more I would then have more to write about.

Galaxy translates to Yinhe and 銀河


However Galaxy is a division of Yinhe the company.

The math or analysis would require these variables.

Area, staff size.

The disclosed variables of production capacity are here:


You could go into the statistical reports, they are archived, back to the year the webpage was last updated, probably 2009 or earlier and see if the claims of 150,000 unit’s a year on the website match the reports in that year? Based on the perpetual year after year shrinkage rate that began around the time they stopped updating the website. Then see if consistency exists…that is an auditing method.

I’ve done that on others and would say the reports are relatively consistent, they may be all over stating production numbers, but that would mean they get government funds based on production or some incentive exists for them to over state or exaggerate production numbers.
