Ok, smarties....lets see how your knowledge of European motorcycle history is...I expect high scores from all of you! (taps her ruler against her palm menacingly)

European Motorcycles

Questions:

1) Hub-steering was first seen on which Italian production motorcycle?

2) Which Italian motorcycle company also made farm tractors?

3) Which motorcycle company produces the Speed Triple?

4) The Boxer engine can most commonly be found in which motorcycle brand?

5) Which motorcycle company was started in 1926 to produce small radio components?
