Need help from the bike community

[DarkAge]

Hi

Just joined this forum as I need some help from this community.

Here is the case: I own a succesfull automotive website where members can upload their car images, add specs, projects, etc, etc.

Now i'd like to extend my website to cover bikes as well so members can have cars and bikes in their garage. However since i'm a completely noob when it comes to 2 wheels I'll need some help.

I need help to identify the common bike so the bike section is populated faster.

I know of the following makes:
Adler, Adly, AJS, Aprilia, Ariel, ATK, Baotian, Barossa, Benelli, Beta, BFG, Bimota, BMW, Boss Hoss, BSA, Buell, Cagiva, CCM, CF Moto, Chang Jiang, Chater-Lea, CZ, Daelim, DB Motor, Disa, DKW, Dnepr, Ducati, Egli, E-TON, FN, FYM, Gas Gas, Geely, Gilera, Godden, Haojin, Harley Davidson, Hero, Hisun, Honda, Husaberg, Husqvarna, Hyosung, Indian, Italjet, Jawa, Jincheng, Jinlun, Kawasaki, Keeway, Kreidler, KTM, Kymco, Laverda, Ledow, Lem, Lifan, Loncin, Maico, Matchless, Montesa, Moto Guzzi, Moto Morini, Moto Union, MV Agusta, MZ, National Motor, New Hudson, New Imperial, Nico Bakker, Nimbus, Norton, NSU, PGO, Piaggio, Polaris, Premier, Puch, Quadrant, Regal Raptor, Rickman, Royal Enfield, Sachs, Scorpa, Scott, She-Lung, Sherco, Shineray, Skyteam, SMS, Sunbeam, Suzuki, Svalan, Sym, Thumpstar, TM Racing, Triumph, TWN, Universal, Ural, Velocette, Vespa, Victoria, Voxan, Workz, Yamaha, Zongshen, Zündapp

Can you help filter out the antic/grandpa makes ? Also let me know if i missed any ?

Preferably I should get the list down to 30-35 makes

Thanks in advance.

I'm no bike expert, but you could go on here:

https://www.bikepics.com/manufacturers/

And see which have the most pictures/owners listed.
It stands to reason that the manufacturers with the most pictures are the most popular, so just choose those.

[The Artist]

Just pick out the ones that are like jinchong or tingtongwanwanasingsong or pyloshyt and the ones you are left over are the popular ones.

[mistergixer]

I've filtered down your list to only include the decent ones:

Suzuki GSX-R.

Everyone knows Gixers are made of a) 100% win, and b) complete awesomeness.

Hopefully, McGee will be along shortly to back me up on this.In the meantime, move along, nothing to see here

Why do gixxer owners always insist on this even though the rest of us could easily afford and source one (I mean they are hardly rare)?
Also, I do get a good laugh at a group troup parade of blue/white gixxers go past with matching leathers. If you didn't need both on the handlebars, I know they would be holding hands.

From then on, I and the bicycle feelings deeper.

A bike doesn't have to be rare to be the best

It's the people who buy a less popular bike to try and make themselves look superior because they've bought a bike that isn't as good as the 1 everyone else has bought

Vanilla Ice rides a Gixxer, epic win.

This thread has now completely re-constituted itself to be made of at least 65% Teh Funneh.
I've always kinda liked Gixxers, in that if I ever got a sportsbike, they'd be the ones I'd look at first, but the sheer vociferous rage of a Gixxer owner when you suggest they're not 100% pure win is both awesome and hysterical.
Congratulations, you've made me laugh so hard that I'm now converted. I know I only have a Blandit, but I feel better knowing that it's the bastard progeny of an ex-Gixxer.

I'd be a little careful about bringing the Vanilla Ice connection up, though. I'm pretty sure he touches goats for sexual edification...
