my missus is nearly forty and she at times struggles to hold on, the point i was making if that bike would of bounced (issue being the kids weight) or the kid got distracted with kak in his eyes or turned quickly to look at anything!
120 no gloves wind and rain factor hitting his 'manly' fingers, mind bending!

I think prison isn't necessary, from the video I've just watched on TV I wouldn't see "dangerous driving", I could argue it is dangerous in the rain, however as you seen him cornering he looks in control, and I'm sure if he didn't have confidence in his bike and himself, he wouldn't ride at them speeds, also the fact hes "an experienced rider", however the only thing I would do him for if I was the judge is excessive speed.

A ban would have been plenty. (I'd say fine but its just a money making scheme for the government which I disagree with :) ).

6 months for him

12 weeks for the guy who was convicted of dangerous driving after police found he had been texting on his mobile phone whilst travelling down a motorway (the texting had nothing to do with the crash he was involved in btw)

hmmm

I gotta say, i get really really paranoid when im out riding. Any speed above 90 mph and i feel edgy and slow back down. I cant do it, i cant do triple figures on my own, and even in the company of others im relcutant.

hence why i cant justify buying an R1....when my SV has more engine performance than I'm scared to use

If I ever had problems with cameras it is what I would resort to, but I've always been stopped by the rozzers so it would only have counted against me up to now.
