HOW MANY KAWASAKI ER 500 C5P ARE LEFT?

There are 186 KAWASAKI ER 500 C5P left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 352 KAWASAKI ER 500 C5P that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KAWASAKI ER 500 C5P was highest during 2007 Q4 (797). The number taxed topped out in 2007 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 259 (32%) KAWASAKI ER 500 C5P have been scrapped or exported.

During 2020 Q1 the number of KAWASAKI ER 500 C5P that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.
