Gotta be all the xs250's 400's i owned.
Nothing but pure hell from day one, **** electrics, **** ignition and they fell to its quicker than i could ride them.
They all got thrown into a pit and set on fire in the end, i was so pissed off with them.
Then i had a **** on top of them, and they were buried.
I wouldn't own another yamahaha ever again.........

Worst? And I've owned some **** in my time. Worst must have been a Husky 250 crosser. Broke the kick start mechanism just about every time I took it out of the shed - and hardly ever started when it didn't - went to the importers and they quoted some astronomical price for the parts, before telling me that the part for a five year old bike wasn't made any more and was impossible to obtain AND they'd sold the last one they had in stock to my mate with the same bike! Based on that, another Husky I had and the experiences of mates with them, I 'll never buy another one.
I've never had a "worst bike" - I've complained about little arseachey things about most of them but truely loved them all.

The worst bike I've ever owned has to be the first Triumph Daytona I had, it gave me nothing but problems, everything that could go wrong did go wrong, I poured fortunes into that bike.
However I must've seen something in those daytona's as when I got rid of the first one I had another two of the same after it.

In my biking history I've only owned 2 Honda's and would say that both of them were the worst bikes I've ever owned.
The first when I was 16 was an SS50, it was difficult start and broke down so many times I was always pusing it home. Flogged it and got an AP50 a much better Ped:thumbup
A few years I picked up a cheap XL600R Paris Dakar, it had a 28ltr tank and was painted red, white & blue. It was cheap 'cos it was an Italian import and had minor accident damage. I stupidly fitted a 628cc Wiseco piston in a bid to try and increase the lowly 29bhp it gave. After that it took 20 minutes to kickstart from cold (if I was lucky) and it would never start when hot, always had to leave 30minutes at the petrol station before re-starting it.
Both these have put me off Honda's forever....

Probably sounds crazy but my 1996 916 was a pig!! Dunno whether i got a REAL bad example of the Bologna factory's lack of electrical knowledge or whether they were all like that! ! ! I was scared to death whenever a cloud floated over head incase it rained as i'd NEVER make it home!! Really ! !
Wasn't half beautiful though ! !
