....."EVER made"....? You proposed a category too large to fill, ended up with virtually all sport bikes in it. They're all fine but the classification is too specific to not include some older machines on which the popularity of motorcycling was built. You'd have to go back to at least the '50s to begin as that's when the great boom began and there were such wonderful offerings in the showrooms and shops. Btw. the Triumph vertical twin sound at ~7:00 is not typical, it has a 270* crank sounding like a V twin whereas the original Bonnies had a 360 degree crankshaft which sounded less harsh, a different kind of music.

My dad had a Norton Scrambler when I was a kid (I’m 59) and it broke down with a minor problem and he left it behind his sisters house for years. My aunt said it eventually got swallowed up by the mud and is underground. If I only knew back then what a collectors bike that is. Sure wish I had it. I just sent my aunt a video of Keanu Reeves favorite bikes to her how valuable that bike was. I myself wondered why he left out the H2. I’m riding a ZX14R at my age. Keeps me either young or dead.

I thought for sure the Yamaha Rd 350 would be on the list as well... Such a shame their wasn't a single 2 stroke on the list. Without a doubt the Kawasaki H1 triple was the king of the streets for a good bit. Iv riden a Yamaha RD 400 Daytona and it was a scary fast bike. Of course I did some 2 stroke tuning with better carbs, expansion chambers and good pistons. But stock they were still light and could wheelie in 4th gear! I couldn't imagine how fast the H1 or H2 would have been!!

The Norton 750 commando High Rider sold as fast as I could pull one from the shipping crate and tune it up .. they came with ape hangers and a sissy bar and back rest ..it was around 1967 I worked for M&R Cycles terre Haute Indiana.. we had Suzuki Ducati, BMW , Moto Guzzi .,and Norton . And yes I will have to admit the 750 Norton Commando standard model was easy to ride , fast and handled chicane left and right pretty quick with a secure feeling in the bars and the pigs I like the way they sit... But we sold a slew of them that has a chopper bars and b**** rack.... I don't matter what year was but later they came out with the 850 Norton interstate that had something like a 5 gallon gas tank on it and it was geared taller for interstate travel with a top speed of 135 mph but they didn't look as nice as the 750 Norton commando

I think maybe you forgot the KZ900, the legend. I remember I worked in a motorcycle shop in highschool, and I always looked up specs of the legendary classics. I specifically went and looked up the microfiche for the KZ900. I was so impressed with the spec sheet, showing 81 horsepower. My XS400 had 27 horsepower at the time. The CB750 in 1969, had 68 horsepower. I always liked the KZ900 and CB750 both. But now days, the CB750 is a lot nicer looking.

Clorox Bleach indeed, my first bike was a C50 than actually beat Yammy Fizzers! And that was before I started tuning it. Just removing the rear baffle added about 5mph. A C70 carb, skimmed head, polished piston and enlarged exhaust port, refined ignition timing ensured I sold mine for more than I paid - after thrashing the balls off it for 12 months until I could afford a CD175. But all our candidates for greatest bikes will always differ. Right now I think the 1983 VF750 Interceptor and the Japanese domestic CB-1 400F (NC27) are way more interesting, and in some ways better than bikes that are considered classics.

The Bonneville continues to be underrated and under appreciated. You have to ride it and have an afternoon to "get it." With the exception of off road, this is the quintessential do it all bike. The thing is, it's not too big, too heavy, or too anything negative. But it punches higher/harder in every possible positive way: from around town to long distance; from cruising to sport riding in the twisties this bike does it all in comfort and style. : )

But the Honda Super Cub has been around for 60 years and recently surpassed the 50 MILLION built milestone. Where is the original Honda Super Hawk/Scrambler/Dream from the early 1960's?? Without those 250/305cc twins, the Japanese motorcycle would have never taken off in the States. Yamaha RD 350/400??? What about the original REAL dual sport the 1968 DT-1 from Yamaha? The original Kawasaki H2??? The Harley Davidson Sportster in continuous production since 1957??? Vincent Black Shadow??? Were you aware that there were some pretty important and groundbreaking motorcycles made BEFORE you were born? Maybe ya just had to be there.

Being bias towards my own dream bike, in 1986 I bought a brand new ninja 1000, 25 years old and taking it off the truck after I picked it up, staring it, brand new, I never had a new vehicle until then, the sound, the smooth power, that first ride I'll never forget, after minibike at 10, rm125, Suzuki, 1st Street bike at 15, 350 Honda, 550 Honda, 750 Suzuki, then the red ninja 1000, I fit it like a glove, you don't even turn the handle bars much, it's all body movement, that bike and me became one working machine. Sounds corny but I fell in love with that bike. Sold it to by an engagement ring, to a girl that 6 months later the relationship was over, oh well, life goes on. Sorry for long, drawn out story, just got carried away in the memory. Thank you for great video.

Honda Magnas and Sabres were cool bikes and preceded the VMax. However the term muscle bike was applied to the VMax. The muscle bike term fit because the VMax resembled the approach Detroit took in creating muscle cars: Take a big motor from a bigger vehicle, the Venture in this case, hot rod it and put it in a stripped down lighter chassis. Add fat tires but don’t sweat the handling. Crush everything in the quarter mile. Also the VMax outlasted the Hondas by 23 years.

@@davefearnley4767 Ya, I liked the Magnas, especially the 1100. The V-Max was the wildest looking bike ever, for the 80's. Can't remember what magazine I have (boxes of them!) but it was an '85 issue that had the 6 fastest quarter mile times. 1st to last were GSXR1100, V-Max, V65 Magna, 900 Eliminator (bought one new in high school and still have it!), 900 Ninja and I think the last was the Suzuki 1100 Madura (might be wrong on that one). One day in grade 12, I took a spin on a little xs400 for a 1/2hr. Then jumped on my Eliminator and it was like WHOA!!! Then, I jumped on a buddies V-Max and that was another level of crazy ABOVE the Eliminator! If I could own more than the three bikes I already have, an early V-Max would be one of the first I would own!

He laid it over in Korea leaving a bike show but me and my buddy fixed it back using all Yamaha parts. It didn’t need much two pieces of plastic and new sliders they saved it.

Burns and Wright made the trip in an effort to retake the world land speed record for motorcycles. In 1954 Burns and Wright had taken the record to 185MPH only to see the German factory team of NSW go to 210 MPH one year later. Unfortunately Burns and Wright's Bonneville trip ended in disappointment with their best run being 198MPH. Later Burns would learn that they had been too conserative by limiting their nitro mix to 20%.

My first bike was an '87 Honda VFR 750 Interceptor I got in 2013. I was in my early 30s, and always wanted a motorcycle, so I stopped wondering why I didn't have one and started looking. A Mobil station up the street had one for sale. The owner had a couple of bikes under $1000 he wanted out of his shop. I walked in, put my hand on it, and felt something... A connection. The bike chooses the rider, I guess. It was my time, and that Honda was calling me. It was forest green with silver and white trim. Unfortunately the original owner's girlfriend back in 1987 didn't like the original red, white, and blue color scheme (which is now legendary on VFRs and helps to hold the value) so he had the panels painted. I got my permit and bought it. I didn't know what I had here. I wanted a Honda or Yamaha street bike, and if a Ninja was available for the same price, I'd buy that. Like, if it was a ninja instead, I would have gotten that. But I am a huge fan of Honda motors across the board, and Yamaha as a company makes the best everything that they make from marine engines to motorcycles, home theaters, and my favorite are their pianos. Taurus SHO anyone? Lexus LFA V10? So my first bike as a new rider was this 750 and it was so fucking fast. I don't ride horses but people who do say that a trotting race horse always wants to run. You have to hold them back but you can feel the power under you trying to break loose. That's how this bike was. It wanted to run. Trying to cruise through town or by the beach and I could feel it almost begging me to kick that gear. The sensation of speed was crazy because I always saw street bike riders fly down the highway at 120 and wonder how they can be so reckless. Then you ride one and 90mph feels like 55, like there's so much control and so much more power to use. My first week I hit 130. No big deal, every guy does. My second week I raced a 1964 Shelby Cobra (original not kit car) up Rt. 3 from Cape Cod towards Boston and backed off as it approached 150. I just glanced down to check speedo position like a clock, what neighborhood it's in. I was a first time rider, and remembered to respect the bike, respect road or I'll be painting it with flesh. I never went that fast again. 100 all the time because it's the bike equivalent of 70. I took that Shelby, but not by much. That little car was fucking fast. A thrilling 20 seconds early on a Sunday morning. We both gave a thumbs up, and I backed off behind him and let him go ahead. Then somebody at work saw it and told me what it was, and that 26 years ago that bike was the king and I was lucky to find one, and stupid to buy it as my first bike.

I think the Busa deserved to be on the list - They've been making it for ages - since 99 I think. And whilst many other manufacturers have tried to build a better hypersports-bike, none have managed to better the busa (In my opinion). The other bike that was mentioned, but pipped by the Blade, is the original 1986 GSXR750. Personally I think it deserved the spot because Suzuki did it first (The whole light is right mentality). The Gixer weighed a tiny 179kg and made almost 100bhp. The GSXR1100 weighed only 10kg more at 189kg and made a massive, for the time, 130bhp. However, I thought your list was pretty good Yammy, and ya can't put every bike on a Top 10. - peace out :)

Great list. Normally, I would say that any motorcycle that gets you from point A to point B safely is a great bike. But, the bikes you listed do it with style. Also, any list that has the Triumph Bonneville on it works for me. :)

I owned a 1972 Kawasaki 750 called an H2 and my brother owned a 1973 Kawasaki 900 called a Z1. I have been told by others that they were somehow significant in the history of motorcycles. To be completely honest, I preferred my 1977 Honda CB 750 K with oval carbs. I have been told that had I purchased a steering dampner for the H2, I would have enjoyed it more. I could lie down on the tank but, it didn't matter, as soon as it hit the power band, "boing !", the front end shot right up. It was a "unicycle". My brothers' Z1 was much more controllable power. Our daughter had a 1987 Yamaha Radian that was pretty interesting for a commuter. And it's older brother, the Fazer was an awfully good commuter as well. I think a first year H.D. Sportster was a sigificant bike also. Just my experience and opinion as is your list.

While I appreciate YN's ability to court controversy and snag views with lists like this one, I can't imagine a single serious bike lover with a genuine appreciation for the machines that made history endorsing this list. I don't approach that level and even I know that the Vincent Black Shadow, Norton Commando, H-D Sportster, BMW GS (and other Beemers), Honda Goldwing and, yes, the 'Busa are more significant, GREATER machines than some of those listed here. Should have been called "My Top 10 Motorcycles", but YN is smarter than that, or at least a savvier online content purveyor.

You do have a good point. I began a motorcycle servicing career at a Honda/BSA dealership in '63 and the Cub was such a super contrivance. That dainty 50cc pushrod engine was so thoroughly sound and practical and the bike wonderfully engineered. I'd like to own one today, still viable in these times.
