Dear oh dear, the desperation in some of the threads lately Laughing

Anyway, to answer the question, I do not know how slow, very slow if I take trials bikes into consideration, road bikes, very slow again when rolling at traffic lights.

We quite often do 30mph on an NSL road, just to let a bit of a buffer effect happen so the twisties can clear and we can take them at the speed we want to.

Only if there's no traffic behind though.

Slow enough that the speedo wasn't even off the peg, so perhaps 3-4 mph. It was behind a tractor on a wiggley road. It was a very good exercise in slow speed control though, half a mile at walking pace. Neutral

It's not hard to ride slower than walking pace with feet up.. can ride feet up without any throttle.. i.e. just slipping the clutch gently doing about 1mph.. ride in traffic daily and you get used to it Laughing
