Pretty much 1mph under the limit
20 - 39
30 - 59
40 - 69
50 - 79
60 - 89
70 - 99
A lot of my commute to work and back each day is along the south circular. I have 59 mph down to a tee - unofficially of course... |

I spend more effort trying to keep the bike sounding as un-obnoxious as possible in built up areas. Even at 20mph it
can still be potentially quite loud, so trying to keep that relatively sensible helps keep speed down by default.
Loud pipes saving lives yet again. Live, mewing kittens spew directly out of my Akrapovic. (They are slightly on fire a teeny bit though...) ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

I don't think anyone does that; my GPS is to keep me on target for curvy roads, usually. But when I'm touring across the continent, it's nice to know about the speed cameras especially in the national speed limit roads where otherwise you'd be riding to conditions - and you know those cameras are often on straights or on the exit of tunnels.
I've been stopped by French plod to run my plates for any outstanding speed cameras fines so it's not like you can just ignore them.
About 50% of my mileage, 5k or so per year these days, is touring. Most of the rest is commute or roads I know. ____________________ Bikes: S1000R, SH350; Exes: Vity 125, PS125, YBR125, ER6f, VFR800, Brutale 920, CB600F, SH300x4
