Hell that's a big journey in short time even on a big bike. Haven't been down there since late 2010.... but I'd had an extra hour to and hour and a half for whatever the normal travel times are supposed to be.
Extra construction traffic, roadworks and tourists mobile roadbloacks.......
Even back then it was painful travelling at times.... Stay ahead of schedule, the last leg kaikoura up seems to suck lot of time...
Don't stay up all night shagging east European sheilas at backpackers and be aware a lot of transient dodgy types drift thru too, backpacker hostels aren't what they used to be...
And don't go visiting anyones yacht in the middle of the night.....
Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually degenerates into a racket - Eric Hoffer
