Buy an old goldwing, cane the hole off of it for five years, everything else will be a doddle after that.


I once toured abroad with a couple of guys on wings.

Did the black forest highway and stuff and spent a lot of mu time hauling the twunts out of the undergrowth at roadside.

Utter fucking barges that corner like footballs.

350YPVS for a trim, Fazer 1000 for a badly overgrown abomination.

I went the IAM route 30 odd years ago and I had some very good instructors (sorry, observers) who showed me what was really possible in terms of being quick safely.

These days I don't really push the envelope, too much speed enforcement for my liking, but I still like to "Make progress" where I can.

Mine comes from me riding a 600 and my mates on 1000s around Wales. I couldn't get close on the straights so I had to have them in the corners. Mr. Green

I don't tend to ride fast as in mph and can probably count the number of times I've done 3 figures in 30+ years of riding on one hand but I will happily get to the edge of the tyres in quite a lot of places so my average speed can be quite high.

Start slowly, keep it smooth and the speed will come.

I would like a supermoto at some point in my biking career. Light bike is easier to learn fast riding with. I am slow and thankful for that.
