There are 111 KAWASAKI ER500 A3 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 364 KAWASAKI ER500 A3 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KAWASAKI ER500 A3 was highest during 2000 Q4 (800). The number taxed topped out in 2000 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q1.

During 2015 Q4 the number of KAWASAKI ER500 A3 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.
