I use normal silicone ear plug+Shoei J Force 4(not sold in UK?) + Screen like this. Mine is 250 and usually cruise at aroud 60mph though, it's comfortable.

Well I just went to a bike rally this weekend on my 9hp Minsk 125 which involved going the full length of the M6 and most of the A14.
How did I cope with that? Well, I put it in the back of a van then parked up and unloaded it when I turned off the A14 because fuck that for a game of soldiers. I could also have taken my VFR instead but PR6 tyres are expensive and work pays for my van tyres.

one of those cramp buster type attachments on the throttle, it made a world of difference |
It really does if you have a heavy throttle.

Yep, quite .. trying various ways of putting a bike in/on the Sprinter. The A100 might fit on a Dave Cooper rack. The Skorpion maybe inside with something like this.. fitted to cargo rail

PS those roads take you to Suffolk - intriguing.
How close did you dare go in the van?
