The Wild One.1953.I'd have thought that back in the late 40s, early 50s he might have gone for British bikes or maybe European but the Japanese bike industry was in its infancy and not really churning out the bikes associated with them since the 70s.
Mind you if the Hell's Angels had been cutting around on Honda 50cc bikes then their image today might have been very different.
Brando rode is personal bike, a Thunderbird 6T in the film. Triumph complained about their products featuring so prominently in the film.
