Off the top of my head: Greeves = 2 (Dave Bickers), BSA = 2 (Jeff Smith, what about Johnny Draper and co?), FN = 1??

KTM must be right up the with Husky.

P.S shame about Maico. They really did deserve a world title.

browsing here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_motocross_World_Championship_results

trying to count without going cross-eyed, I get to 29 for SUZUKI, I think.

As to european brands, KTM is up around 18, Husky got to about 13, CZ around 7, Maico 1 (circa 1957!)

Dave Bickers won the 250 class twice but it didnt have world champ statis back then.It was European Champ.Same with the 125's Zundapp was winning until they made it a World champ and suzuki stepped in.
