THE SHORT ANSWER
1,225 entries in 2025, -0.2% year on year.
Motorcycles from 2024 were the most represented vehicle year, with 253 entries.
What this does—and does not—tell you
These figures show recorded entries for this model family. Repeat thefts can be counted, so the result is not the probability that an individual motorcycle will be stolen.

The annual national record, ownership context and recent-index signals are kept separate. Some supporting comparisons are unavailable when the evidence is limited. Annual records may include the same motorcycle more than once, and recent reporting volume is not a national total. See the reading guide for context.
