10. KTM
You name it, and KTM that ranks 10th in our list of best-selling motorcycles of all time seems to have done it! In fact, their large production line plays a major role in the status of this Austrian company’s many years of success. Primarily a dirt bike manufacturer, KTM has also offered bicycles, street bikes, mopeds, scooters and ATV’s. They’ve even featured a sports car (KTM X-BOW) on their lineup; which is quite fitting considering since their motorcycle prototype debut [the KTM R100] in 1951, what was originally known as Kronreif, Trunkenpolz, Mattighofen (we can only imagine why they simplified their name), has matured into what is arguably the most dominant sport bike manufacturer in the business! With 15 consecutive wins at the Dakar Rally and 261 world championship titles to date, KTM has owned up to their goals of striving for perfection. As if these typically orange motorcycles weren’t popular enough at any off-road racing event around the world, KTM even supplied every single 125cc motorcycle for the Red Bull Rookies Cup in 2007! Not only do they completely dominate in the motor-racing field, but they have recently been breaking their own record sales (even beating out other big-name motorcycle manufacturers!); which have only been continuing to grow year after year, as well as their high standards!
