Those who are looking for the best motorbike insurance quotes may be interested to know more about the most popular motorbikes of all time.
Suzuky Team
The best-selling motor vehicle is the Honda Super Cub moped, which has sales of over 60 million worldwide. It has been in continuous production since 1958, when it was introduced only ten years after the establishment of Honda Motor Co. Ltd. Although the original Honda Cub had been a clip-on bicycle engine, the firm decided to keep the name, adding the prefix ‘Super’ to refer to the new bike’s emphasis on light weight.
The Italian Ducati 916 is another of the most popular motorbikes of all time for a number of different reasons. The 916 is a sports motorcycle that was manufactured by Ducati between 1994 and 1998. It had a V-twin engine that produced less outright power, but a more even torque spread than its Japanese in-line four cylinder contemporaries. The 916 was widely admired for its outstanding design and technological features. The motorcycle was a successful competitor in the Superbike World Championship, with Carl Fogarty winning the 1994 and 1995 titles before Australian Troy Corser’s victory in the 1996 championship.
Honda Race Bike
The Honda CB750, meanwhile, was built in several model series between 1969 and 2003 and again in 2007. The CB750 is widely remembered as the motorcycle in which Honda successfully introduced a transverse, overhead camshaft inline four-cylinder engine that has gone on to become the dominant configuration of sports bikes. Although such a model had been sold before by MV Agusta in 1965, and the configuration had even featured in racing engines prior World War II, the CB750 is considered to be the four-cylinder sports bike that established the configuration for good and is also regarded to be the first Superbike. The model appears in the AMA Hall of Fame Classic Bikes and was featured in the Discovery Channel’s “Greatest Motorbikes Ever” programme.
The Triumph Bonneville T100 is another of history’s most popular bikes and is a British motorcycle designed and built by Triumph Motorcycles Ltd. in Hinkley, Leicestershire. John Mockett and David Stride were responsible for styling the T100 Bonneville, which made its debut at the Munich Motorcycle Show in September 2000. The launch model featured an 865cc engine that went on to be fitted to all Bonneville’s from 2007 onwards. The ‘T100′ designation refers to the 100 mph (160 km/h) top speed and the bike is sold as part of the manufacturer’s range of “Modern classics”.
