Worst 2012 Beta 450. (May have actually been a 2011, I can't remember.) Needless to say I didn't have it very long.
Worst - 1979 Honda cr125 that 23" front wheel blew
I’m going to go with the best as my 1975 Bultaco 250 Pursang. Under 200 ibs and so much torque it was incredibly easy to ride. The light weight was like being on a 125. I could miss a shift and still get the holeshot
I would say the worst bike was a 1980 KX 125 Unitrak. It handled very nicely but the motor was so far behind the completion it was ridiculous. I had it ported by Pro Circuit, a pipe and carb and that was to get it to be even with a box stock Yamaha or Suzuki. Of course once you did any mods to the other bikes they would leave my heavily modded KX in the dust

Best 2006 RM250 2011 YZ250
Worst bike I have owned, I would say its a tie between my '15 kx450f, and 09 yff450
Honorable mention should be 2010 RMZ450. While the bike itself performed pretty good, it was the biggest POS money pit ever. Constantly had stupid little things going out on it. Almost every riding day was cut short because a seal decided to start leaking, or a sensor went out, or something else stupid
Worst was my 03 CR85. There was probably nothing wrong with the bike but I broke more bones on that thing than every other bike combined because it was my first two stroke. I didn't know how to ride it and never started out with the 50cc, 65cc bikes to know how to ride one, especially how to jump with one. I was constantly looping out and crashing.
Best : 2005 RM250
Worst was a 1993 YZ125. Mine was a terd
Worst: -16 450, blew that fork and shock to shit countless times
Showroom stock: 98 KX250
Modified: 07 CRF450
Worst (no contest, hands down, the TM400 of modern bikes...): 97 CR250. What a total POS.
Worst - 2008 RMZ 250 (slow)
Worst : Tough to say, I have gotten along with all my bikes...I guess my 2004 KX250f
Worst I would have to say was a tie between the 07 kx450 and 2011 ktm350sxf the KTM I just didn’t like ever and couldn’t come to terms with it. And the 07 450 was an unreliable tank that I killed countless times.
Worst- 2013 KTM 450 sxf (crank, shift fork, injector, you name it- inside of 12 hrs)
2003 CRF 450...
Lots of problems all season, handled like a (full) wheelbarrow. Ironically though I had some great races on it and overall have fond memories of the old girl.
Best:
2004 YZ 250...
To this day I regret selling it. Later had a 2006 but I never loved it as much as the 04.
Worst: 2001 YZ125. It was the worst because of how clapped it was. I was a dumb 13 year old and it had YoT graphics so I thought it was sweet. It was held together with wood screws and zip ties.
Pit Row
Best.....2013 Husqvarna TC449 ( 2005 Honda CRF450R runner up)
Paw Paw
Best - 1997 YZ125. Felt like I could do anything on that bike. I still have it, and probably always will.
04 YZ 250, 09 YZ 250f, 06 KTM 250 XC, 08 KTM 200 XC, 04 RM 125
Worst List:
91 KX 125, 03 Gas Gas 250 EC, 96 RM 250
My worst was a 200 KX-250 solely because I hit a false neutral between 2nd and 3rd (wtf? there should be no room for one there) on a jump face that left me swimming in the air Chad Reed style, 20 feet off the ground.
Worst: 2012 KTM 50
Best 2018 YZ450 I shoot a load every time I ride her.
