To be fair something doesn't have to be 'good' to be 'classic'.

DeLorean
Ford Pop
Morris Minor
Rover 3500 (in fact any rover considered a classic now was probably a 'bad' car originally)
Early Corvettes
Porsche 914
Triumph TR7

Ok, all cars but I'm sure if I knew half as much about bikes there would be a similar list of much loved (by some) classics that were manure when they were new
