The worst bike ever made
 

What is it?

I'm not talking just the last few years, but at least after the war.

Or maybe a top 10 of most hopeless bikes.

Have to be road bikes, not racers.

anything by OCC - lovely looking (if you like that sort of thing) but hideously impractical

Re: The worst bike ever made
 

Any CZ, XS250, late 70's early 80's Ducatis (Darmah etc), any Spanish built moped,

Pre-revolution harleys (basically, all of them except the v-rod derived stuff). More so if they've been customised to make them even more impractical than standard.

I gather that the person compiling this was a tractor fancier, the Buell is an improvement on the original Hardly dangerous machine:D

Written by a Canuck who owns a "large capacity V-twin American motorcycle with a double barreled name", what do you expect?

Re: The worst bike ever made
 

CZs weren't so bad, rather rough and ready it's true, but pretty much unbreakable as long as it got oil put in it. Even handled OK ish, (by the standards of 1975ish), as they're strong, slow though and brakes not great, but not significantly poorer than contemporary bikes

Yamaha XS250/400 - Particularly the 250 which is the very same bike as the sincerely overweight, wobbly, stodgy 400 but with even less power. Everything breaks and rots, no really - everything. Utterly dreadful.

Honda CB500 - No, not the one you're thinking of. This one made in the seventies. Knackered in no time engine fitted with 18 yards of piddly thin and stretchy camchain, ponderous handling, pathetic spindly forks, the worst brakes imaginable and slooooooowwww. Truly dire, and that's when it's spanking new.

More to come when I can face the thoughts of them.
