    Well, you aren't necessarily a bad driver just for wanting to go from A to B. The danger is not paying attention, and driving/riding within your limits. Don't know about others, but I find it a lot easier to pay less attention on straights (well... bar the speedo... the damn thing won't stay still )

    Yeah for sure, but you know the point im making. It's the same people who know the colour of the car for identity purposes over its actual make.

    Oh well, I decided I want to find out if I'm abnormal or not, so feel free to chuck your side in, here.

    Scariest thing ever to me. You lean into a corner and she just about falls off.
    The GB must have had some sort of hum that put women to sleep at that speed
