what do you think the best bike in the world ever is. its not based on whats the fastest or the best handleing, its what is the best all round bike. base you answer on things like reliability, cost (re sale value) how long the engine will last, cost of parts,and handleing

I agree with Korn, my mate has a C90 until he passes his big bike test and it's cool. Drinks hardly any fuel, can wheelie it for ages, nobody gives a shit if u drop it, and you can get 6-7 people on them Razz .

I hate to say it, but it's probably gotta be a Beemer - depreciation is often low, servicing and customer relations are reported to be good, engines are reliable (even if they make the bike as wide as a car), and most are shaft/belt driven.

Honda C90 is the mutt's nuts. They never go wrong unless you blow it up physically. Fuel economy is excellent but don't know the miles to a tank or whatever. The only thing that ever went wrong with mine was tyres. Mainly because mine was used as a field bike Razz Plus the C90 is the best selling bike in the world so it can't be that bad! Cool

My vote goes for the VFR800/750. Most magazines seem to give it great reviews for its ability to tour and scratch.
Or maybe it should now be the weird looking multistrada (although its probably too ugly to be voted best at anything).

I recon it's the VFR800 or the Blade. Nothing goes wrong with em and the Urban Tigerstripe Blades are becoming quite collectable.

It's a Legend

If you went round the world on a VFR800 imagine how much fuel you would use, and say if u were in siberia it would take you ages to get parts. The C90 is easy to work on, easy to get parts for and the best bike ever!!!!!!!!!!!!. People cherish them in places like China. And if the VFR800 or the blade is the best bike in the world why are more and more people buying the C90?.
