plant tongue firmly in cheek before reading

Worst woods bike? Of all time? No, no, no, my son. When I was a young pup my buddy had one of those old bicycles with the fake gas tank and suspension on it. I took it for a boot and was not impressed, the brakes tended to fade and the seal around the gas cap was sketchy, not to mention the apparent disregard the maker had for the quality of the chain. There was no way it was going to withstand the power I was trying to put to the ground, ( did wheelies and everything ). The rear sprocket was not going to last long, after a quick ride, I was going to adjust the forks, I couldn't figure out how, so I peeled back the rubber around the fork and SHOCK of SHOCKS! : It was solid! Approx. 0.0" of suspension travel. On top of everything else you had to either continually go downhill, or you had to peddle the piece of junk around! So I don't think the crf450 is the worst, ( at least the crf's throttle is actually connected to a motor ).
