What are you proving by speeding?

Your restraint, however modest, is commendable. After all the CX400 probably doesn't offer the ultimate in temptation.

Owners of 1198s, S1000RRs, CBR1000RRs, etc etc, would require superhuman restraint to ride like that though.

apparently when new the cx400 could do 160kph, with a 24 yo bike I dont even want to try that, 100kph is a nice speed and I get a longer ride for the same distance

And owners of S4R's...

is this a serious post?

the point is going fast is fun, its not about proving anything

i'd have thought that was fairly self evident
