What bikes would you never ride?

[JackyJoll]

I’ve already ridden an Ariel 3, so that doesn’t really leave much.

[Whysub]

I'd have a go on pretty much anything, though I suspect I'd draw the line at anything sub 125cc as it'd just be too damn slow

Youve never ridden a derestricted Cagiva Mito then?

[Yorick]

I have been on a Harley once. Many moons ago a pal was given an 883 or summat to race and he had to run it in.
So off we went 2 up, pegs down everywhere. On one roundabout we both had left hands on the ground.

The stupidity of yoof

Reminded me that my mate was offered to ride the VR1000 Harley racer that they built in the early 1990's. He agreed like a shot, before hearing it had
very poor handling, and had been crashed on almost every outing it had. He was so releived when it was totally destroyed in a race a couple of weeks before he was to race it.

Or a two stroke 125 MX bike?

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

I don't think there's a style of bike I haven't ridden, and they've all been fun, and I only ride bikes for fun, so I don't think there's a bike I wouldn't ride, loads I wouldn't buy.

[Druid]

I have owned a CZ250, pretty much everything is better than that. I wouldn't own another one though

[KungFooBob]

This could morph into a shit bikes you've owned, that weren't actually that shit.

I had an MuZ 301 NE Saxon Tour. it wasn't as bad as you'd expect.

[r1flyguy]

Any Harley Davidson to be honest

Not a CZ175... trust me on that.

[JackyJoll]

My MZ TS125 was not enjoyable to ride, perhaps because it appeared to be a reduced-capacity 150.

My Vespa 100 was surprisingly enjoyable to ride.

Suit yourself

[KungFooBob]

I'd really like to try an XR1200 Hardly.

I parked my 500 Bullet next to one once and thought it looked cool as fuck. The Harley wasn't bad either.

[Le_Fromage_Grande]

The only Harley I've ridden, it wasn't as awful as it looks

I rode a Harley, it was a Night Train or something, it was over 20 years ago and I'd just jumped off an R6.

My lasting memory was the throttle didn't make it faster, just louder.

I'm a little more mature now and think I'd have a totally different experience.

[Count Steer]

The main issue for many bikes/makes/types is image innit? People think you can't have a Hardly unless you either wear a cut or are a bank manager. Sports bike must be 1-piece leathers with hump, GS riders of course must be wearing Rukka (and smell of wee).
None of which is true of course but I've not seen a Hardly rider in a 1-piece or a GS rider in a cut (or chaps ).

In the first picture Jay Springsteen is riding a Harley in one piece leathers

I guess technically cagiva moto's and 125 MX bike are sub 125, but I kinda meant anything classed as less than 125 IYSWIM

I've got a 110cc Peugeot Vox that I take away in the motorhome.

You'd be surprised how much beer and wine you can carry between a Carrefour and a campsite on it.

I promise I wouldn't!! Only because I once went to Le Mans with friends and was amazed at how much beer, wine, food (including baguettes!) they could get on a ZZR600!!
