Out of all the bikes you've owned or ridden, which has been the best and worst ?
The best bike I've owned was a 900 fireblade rr 99 plate. Agile, great looks and so so fast...it was my first big bike.
The worst bike I've ridden was suzuki TL1000s that a friend let me ride..front brake was like a sponge cake 😅 no bite at all and the rear end looked like a ducks ass 🦆

Favourite bike is my current Tigersport 800. It does everything I could want...

Worst bike was a CB125twin, it never ran right which is probably why it cost me a whole £1.

Was that the good old superdream machine 😄 not even sure £1 was a bargain for that bike 😅

My best bike was undoubtedly my BMW GS1150. Besides the good handling and comfort it was the little things like a toolkit you could remove a wheel with, a centre stand that balanced in the centre so either wheel could be up, an overdrive top gear, sensible luggage - with just so well designed.
The most 'not for me' bike was my mate's Ducati 916, I just didn't fit on it. I would have one in the shed to look at but not to actually ride more than a handful of miles.
The absolute worst was a Kawasaki gpz550 called You Cantankerous Bastard whose sole purpose was to make my life miserable.

Ducati never appealed to me, heard they suffered from electrical problems. Not quite the Italian finery you would expect...yeah they look cool, but I'd rather have reliable than not.

Over the years I've had 40+ bikes so it's hard to nail a favourite one.
So here are some of my favourites
Honda GL500 Silverwing
Yamaha XJ900
BMW K100
Triumph Tiger 955i
and one of my current bikes Triumph 1050 Tiger Sport

Best bike I had most fun on was my old Garelli Tiger cross moped.Sounded like like tin can full off gravel and went like shit off a hot shovel, for a 16yr old it was smiles for miles.
Worst one was 250 superdream and only because of the nippon no-grip tyres that were standard.
Most terrifying bike is the ZZR1400 languishing in the garage. Very good bike and fast, but if you aint ready for the power band to kick in its like, stick your head between your legs and kiss your arse goodbye. Definitely a machine demanding mucho respect and concentration to ride.

Kwacks have always had good engines, had a couple of zzr600s in my 20"s. Wanted a zzr1100 but opted for a 900 fireblade instead. Kwacks have always had a good history with fast bikes, the H2 and H2r have continued that trend.
