No, I'm the /one/ driver who never speeds, he's the /other/ one.

So you have never *ever* drifted even .001 mph over the posted limit?


Many times. In the past I've deliberately driven at speeds up to an
indicated 140mph, but these days I make a habit of keeping within the
posted limit.


Heh, impressive, I've only been up to about 80+ then decided I didn't
like the wind noise. For my next bike I want a supermotard, lots of
grunt, decent handling and fun at 60.

At the moment I'm having far to much fun on my new mountain bike to
even bother with the m/cycle. I've just drained the tank down to
enough to get to the petrol station. I should have a week or two
before the petrol starts going seriously off.
