Answers:
my first and worse bike are The same machine my 17th birthday present from my parents a Suzuki x5 200cc purchased brand new Oct 1978 bits started falling off the thing Oct 1978 what a piece of S*** that thing was a constant source of embarrassment when on every ride with my mates one of them would pull up beside me and hand me yet another lump of self removing Suzuki plastic in the end it got stolen from outside my house could probably have found it by following the trail of bits of Suzuki laying in the road my dream bike was the 1970,s hellion the alleged scary 750 h2 Kawasaki 2 stroke triple until my tuned to the balls 350 LC caned one into the ground one summers day back in the early 80,s but as a collectors classic I would love a Bennelli 900 sei or from the same era a bright orange Laverda Jota lovely thing well out gunned by most bike nowadays but a true classic of its day with a by today's standard a very sedate 130 mph top speed considered to be the fastest standard road bike of its time used to love my LC and my H1 mach 3 kwaka even with its chewing gum frame and addiction to 2 stroke oil but great fun if you are a very sick puppy off the road now cos the doctors will not let me drive ,ride,or do anything vaguely fast anymore owing to my seizures sadly I never owned a fizzy but would have liked to have had one !!!!!!!!!!.
best=bmx never had a worst
mike was a little blue fat-wheeled thing. I can remember riding it across the lawn with all my friends and brothers and sisters watching and cheering that i didn't fall off. but i guess you meant motorbike. my worst bike was the lady's shopper i had as a teenager. i love love love my specialized crossroads fs something something.
Yamaha DT175
Honda 650z
I had a little gold second hand tomohawk. Il oved that bike!
first was a 71 yamaha dt250, that was also my worst bike, hard, hard to start, (needed rebuilt, but being a kid didnt know any better) worked on all the time to maybe get to ride for a few hours a weekend. all and all a worn out pile of crap, but it was as fun as i could have when it ran. and my dream bike would be an 1951 indian chief.
my first bike was an OLD AT1 125 Yamaha enduro .i guess the worst pos i ever had was an old hodoka combat wombat..everything on the poor feller had been wore out. i guess if i had it today it would be worth a mint.
i really wish i had the wombat back..it was a neat little turd
Possum
I started with a racer (pedal-bike) then progressed to a mountain bike..
My 1999 Honda ST1100-Pan European was a class bike, smooth, fast and VERY comfortable!
gp 100
first bike nsu quickly moped auto-cycle race tune, fastest moped then fs1e came out beat me on flat but not up hill bummer
worst bike no such thing
all bikes different & fun
First bike Honda 350 Scrambler..Worst bike Harley Sportster Never run Right if you could get it started on nice days. Rain snow it would go. Like hogs love my Indian!!
MR175
worst TT 225 No power very boring
Fastest RD-350 racing chambers,straight K/N intakes and jetted to the max. It would smoke my CB900.
First bike was a honda c50 cub moped!! S41T really but great when you are 8 yrs old! First road legal was a Honda CG125 which is still on the road with my mates son!! Worst bike was a Suzi GT380 which enjoyed making me shat me self at every opportunity! 2 strokes are a bugger when you get the carbs set up wrong. 18 yrs old and and no sense of set up!! Sold it for an XS650. Oh the silliness of youth!
Best bike? My bootiful Yoshimura CB500/4 (genuine) Phil Read Replica. As someone else posted earlier, 4 wheeled git took us out. I was OK but a piece of biking history was just a bit of written off paperwork on a insurance brokers workload.
Never forgive, always get even.
Edit: Just re-read and saw somebody had a GP100! Cool!! Mine was blue. Did you cut down your baffles!!! C'mon, we all did!!
ha! that is so funny - - -memories.. my first and worst bike was a 650 yamaha - - by b/friend chopped it out so cool - 'cept he never told me the forks were bent!
small crash - nothin serious
A Honda MB5 50cc when I was 16 (I couldn't afford an FS1E), I loved it. I had a Suzuki B120 after that, then moved on to four wheels.
First bike was an MZ ETZ125. Had the best time on that, even though it got knicked after only 2,000 miles. Incidentally, it was probably the worst bike. On second thoughts, they have all been great but for different reasons. Best bike I ever had a was a Honda Fireblade. Man, I regret getting rid of that. Worst bike for changing gear was a Yamaha Fazer 600 - sometimes made a real bad sound when changing from 1st - 2nd, when it went in!
I agree with sluttt. Gold tomahawks were fantastic.
My first and favorite was a Yamaha RZ350 Kenny Roberts Special. That 2-stroke motor would just pull forever and it was always fun to leave a Fathead on a Fatboy coughing in my oil-injected dust. The worst bike was a either a knock-off custom Harley or a Yamaha Turbo.
First = '05 Yamaha V-Star 650 (great first bike)
Worst = none yet, still on my first bike
Dream bike = Don't know enough about the various bikes to have one
My first was a Yamaha 250 enduro. Since then I've had Kaws, Triumphs and Harleys. Don't guess I have ever had a "worst bike". Love em all.
First; 1970 CT70 Honda Mini Trail. Green 4 spd model.
First full size; 1972 SL125 Honda.
Worst; Man. I guess a 1974 YZ360 Yamaha, the model was great, the one I had was more worn out than I had bargained for. No fault of the bike, I just made a bad decision.
Best; In my heart: 1976 YZ250 Yamaha. Lots of good memories with that one. In reality: 1999 KTM300 EXC. Those 50mm WP forks were some of the best I've ever used! Great bike.
Most interesting; 2002 & 2003 Cannondale E440R & X440R. These bikes have kept me on my toes and made me learn more things about fuel injection, fuel managment and mapping than I ever dreamed of. Once dialed in these puppies are sweet, getting there requires the patience of Jobe.
Best bike? My 83 Kawasaki KZ550.great range, good power and comfy too. Worst? 86 Yamaha Radian 600.good power, but no excuse for a pathetic 3 gallon tank.and uncomfortable as hell.
Dream bike.Suzuki DL650 V Strom.as soon as nursing school's over.
My first bike was a 71 Yamaha 60. My brother and I modified it to race flat track.
The worst bike I ever had was a 81 Yamaha 360. I worked on it all the time.
Since that bike, I've only bought Honda. Hondas are the most dependable motorcycles there are. Good Question.
My first and worst was a 1981 yamaha virago, the first year out, went through 3 engines all due to upper engine oiling issues, and 4 starters (newer ones are ok)
First bike was a Honda 50.
I've had a Triumph 650, a Matchless 650, 2 BMWs, a DOHC Honda 450 and a SOHC 750, as well as a full-race Yoshimura equipped Suzuki 750 that beat everything I ever raced against.
But my favorite bike which I had far more fun on than anything else was a . . . . .
Honda 400 automatic.
I currently own my "dream bike", a 1955 BMW 50/2. No front end dive when braking, no rear end dip when accelerating, both exhaust valves are into the wind, perfect mechanical balance, art deco styling, magneto powered ignition means the battery can be flat dead and it will still start and run well.
Now, if the helmet law would go away I could ride again.

Worst bike I ever had was the village bike,,stunk of fish
First bike - Honda H100
Worst bike - 1976 Harley-Davidson XLCR. Looked fantastic, but couldn't get more than 20 miles without breaking down.

First: Honda VT250C . . . good bike.
Worst: Haven't had one
Best: Ducati ST3
Dream . . . . prob Ducati 1098
mine was a rd50mx and the worst bike was a ducati 900ss on a g plate (battery would undo after 100mile )
