Averages to be 18.5k a year since the start of production in 1969. That's pretty good going for a Bike Model!

In continuous manufacture since 1958 with production surpassing 60 million in 2008, 87 million in 2014, and 100 million in 2017,[2] the Super Cub is the most produced motor vehicle* in history.
