Quiz time 80's motorcycles

Post by Bustaspoke »

How well do you remember the 80's bikes? I guessed the Honda that they sold in Pakistan & got the last one wrong,but I've never watched Rambo 9/10..

7/10. Absolutely kicking myself for not getting the one on the British V-twin correct. Two were lucky guesses.
