Default countries mapped by motorcycles



This map adjusts the size of countries according to their motorcycle usage percentage per population. Its pretty neat who the world gets readjusted from this view, but it is also strangely disturbing that the southeastern aisian countries are so huge compared to the continent of africa which would greatly benefit from a major influx of honda cubs.

And I would like to point out that canada is still one of the crappiest places on the planet

I would bet that today would be too cold for you to ride in most Canadian cities.

Let's see the snowmobile map...

Yeh but if you look at a country like cambodia, it is forbidden to have a bike over 250cc, and if you want to ride your personal larger bike into there you need special permission to bring it into the country
