Even so, popgun, go ride with him and try keeping up.
VLJ, the law here forbids speeds approaching 100 mph (160 kph). The police enforce speed limits with enthusiasm and there are mandatory severe penalties for second offenses of speeds in excess of 20 kph above the speed limit. So it’s not worth experimenting. The maximum speed limit on a freeway here is 110 kph. My 2011 CB is a 5 speed and I seldom find a problem overtaking in top gear. The caveat is that I’ve never ridden a crazy fast motorbike so I’ve no basis for comparison. I have ridden an ST1300 and can’t recall that it accelerated a whole heap better than the CB1100. Might have been more comfortable at speed because of the windscreen.
Oh ... the tunnel in the video was, I think, in South Korea.
