(Source : Oto Detik) Comment : Despite the low based effect, we still like the 2W market overall positive sales volume growth. The market is "cruising" rather than "sprinting." The 2.06% growth is a healthy sign of economic stability, but the industry is bracing for a year where consumer caution might outweigh the desire for new upgrades. Several headwinds such as: consumer confidence, purchasing power level, financing sensitivity, and geopolitical ripples will remain as several challenges. In all, we believe the motorcycle market sales volume could continue to record higher growth this year, despite at a mild rate. Maintain Neutral rating on the sector.
