Not sure about the pushbike mucker, at least yours had peddles.

I've had to push some of mine and they had engines. :yes
 
Anything made by Yamaha , my first bike a fizzy as all the fastners , nuts rounded off and standard pozi head screws bolloxed .

father In law has a Yamaha tmax 500 scootery thing . it was stolen and recovered . we started to strip all the damaged panels and parts off it yesterday , more knackered heads on pozi,s hex head s and bolts .

have Yamaha not improved the quality of their fastners in 40 fookin years , theyre still made of fookin cheese and soft fookin cheese at that .
 
1982 GSX1100 EX standard shocks were non existent. The air assisted front forks weren't, the factory forgot to machine the valve passage!! The standard tyres were made of plastic (no not really) just felt like it. It weaved like you would not believe on 90 mph + bends. Forks fixed,a pair of S&W streetstrokers (remember them) showing my age and a set of Pirelli Phantoms (rears, front and back) popular mod with Production racers at that time worked wonders. The bike was transformed until it met an untimely end when we hit a Micra that pulled across in front of us, a week after returning from the TT in 1985.
 
the worst bike i ever had was a 175 mz. its only saving grace was that it was free, broke down all the time, finally left it in a ditch after kicking the **** out of it with my cowboy boots ( it was the 80's!!) ironically the police found and traced it back to me, pity they could'nt do that with the bikes i liked when they got nicked!!
 
Kawasaki GTR1000 the handling was crap. It tried many times to throw me off :crazy
 
Derbi Terra 125. Nice size but would never start when cold and if you stalled it it required neutral, engine switch off, 30 secs off then it would go again.
 
I had a twin shock klx 250, it was utter ***** tbh. Slow and front heavy which did not help when jumping

Had a KX 250 A5,,,,,,,,,,,anything but slow.

You just gotta love a 2 stroke crosser, always lusted after a CR500, had a CRM250 enduro on which I managed to break both elbows and had to ride it 4 miles to get to the end of the track then had to persuade two lads to get put on the trailer for me.

I used to green lane on a klr 250 so I had a new klx250 thinking it would be better, newer is not always better
 
I used to race southern motocross in my late teens/early 20's on an 87 cr250, but then thought i'd give it a go on a cr500. The best bike and worst bike in one package, f##king mental power, light speed acceleration, miniature power band and ******* tank slappers. Half a dozen meetings and I **** out and went back to a ktm 250. All time crap bike, husky 610 te, it had more days off than an MP. Sorry new to the site and getting a bit post happy.
