    thought this woould be fun, whats the best and worst bike/scoot you have ridden, i will start:
    best: i think the new hondas with the auto gear thing, very impressed with them, suzuki drz400s are nice to ride too.
    worst: either a vespa et4 50, or a chinese scoot (TGB?) what had drum brakes frant and back, no air in the tyres, a badly made carb, and a bunch of other problems.

    Hmmm, tough one
    Honda CB900F was nice. Good low down grunt, comfortable, full fairing helped with wind battering at speeds.
    Goldwing also nice with the low centre of gravity
    then the CBX750F1, fitted me nicely from the arse to the bars.

    Bad ones got to to be the Peugeot V-Clic. Never come across such a bag of shite in all my life. If you can buy a complete piston and barrel for £26 retail, then there is your build quality.

    i thought the CBX turbo was a terrible bike, rode one last year i think it was, what a disappointment! all of those 4t chinese bikes are shite, the cheaper ones are even worse than the peugeots!
    i actually think ducati are a bit bad too, so much money for what they are.

    Rides:
    None.
    best bikes easy - Honda visions obviously. Honda cb400. triumph tiger 800. cbr600. Suzuki vstrom1000. pulse scout 50 and the moto guzzi California 1400 touring (obviously I rode that on private land)

    worst bikes - Honda nss300 forza hands down. all Chinese piece of shit apart from the pulse scout (theyre good when looked after). dare I say this Honda cg125. Honda cbf125. Honda cbr125. the newer Suzuki dr125. LML vespa copy bullshit. vespas (all) lambrettas (all).
