>>I can't think they can go much quicker. On some of the straighter sections they exceed 200mph on effectively a relatively narrow country road. I used to ride big bikes and I remember how fast even 80 mph felt on roads that size.

I stopped owning them after having three stolen but I still remember the pleasure of coming off the ferry at Calais and heading south. Peeling off layers and waterproofing as it got warmer.
