Top 10 unsung yet iconic motorcycles
Fame, It's a funny old business. You'll find more talented musicians busking on the London Underground than you will at the top of the charts. Here's the motorcycling equivalent

Err....unsung????

Some of these on the list are amongst the most famous and lauded bikes ever; hardly unsung heros.

Remember, the sooner you fall behind the more time you have to catch-up

Who wrote this nonsense FFS? They've sold 60 million of them, not 27 and as for an indicated 65mph from a C90 - no chance. Not even if you pushed it off a cliff.

You have some facts wrong on the Brando bike (and Brando), mate. It was a 1950 Thunderbird 6T, the movie came out in 1953. Also, it was Brando's own bike - he could and did ride it quite well himself.

It was Harley-mounted Lee Marvin who couldn't ride when the film was shot -though he learned quickly during filming and went on obtain and race a 200cc Tiger Cub in desert races, which were quite popular at the time.enry

I recently got myself one of these a couple of month ago in June, £650 and looks like new with a minimal amount of rust underneath the bike. Full respray in sky blue, pit bike exhaust getting fitted shortly and it's the one and only bike, I'm now ever going to ride! C90's are basically crap! But their so crap their the most amazing bike out there! I love the look of it, the sound and the style.

Nice reading through this, Mate. :)

Cheers!
