Dear Sir/Madame,

As students of MIEX Master in International Management (University of Bologna) , my team and I are carrying out a Project Work to analyze the characteristics of the ASEAN Motorcycle Market.

The aim of our research is to determine how the market in the mentioned countries is segmented, and how this segmentation is going to change over a 10-year period, to draw a profile of customers of 2 wheel vehicles equal or over to 250 cc, in the AESEAN countries. Moreover, to determine when the customers switch from 250 cc motorbikes to equal or over 500 cc motorbikes. Furthermore, to research the development of racing activities in the proposed countries, both in off-road and on-road segments.
Consequently, as fundamental part of our research, we would like to interview a Representative of your Motorcycle riders through the questionnaire you find above.

We kindly ask you to return the completed questionnaire within a week upon receipt date of the email. Please remind that your contribution is essential for the completion of our project.

In case of any doubts, please do not hesitate to contact me at pennisi.ada@tiscali.it

Thanks for your collaboration.

Your Faithfully,
Ada Pennisi

Dear Ada,

That\'s not how our Forum works.  If you wish to ask specific questons, and receive specific answers, then post your questions here for all to see.  That way when answers are given we are all privy to the information.

This is a privately owned Forum with very strict posting guidelines.  Perhaps you should first read our rules before proceeding.

As an aside to the question posed: in the Philippines isn\'t there some compelling reason why most people ride fairly low powered bikes, generally under 200cc? Is it a tax reason or import restrictions? Whatever it is I guess it renders this type of questionnaire fairly useless for this country.

A good guess Paul would be pure economics. The purchase cost of low end/lower powered bikes combined with fuel efficiency just makes sense in a developing nation. Otherwise you would see more power in many more tricycle and motorela applications for hauling and weight considerations. Philippinos will get by with as little as they can to make things work.  ;D ;D ;D 8)

Simply a matter of affordability, the average worker here earns about 3,000 to 5,000 peso/month (5,000 peso US$ around $115) so they simply can\'t afford it.  The people here that own their own private vehicle are financially much better off.

Strange they find the money to modify the exhaust of the small bikes to make them sound like a much bigger bike.

Brett.
