If they have photographic evidence that you were speeding then unless you are prepared for a huge and possibly expensive battle, then just fill out the NIP and send it back, I'd imagine for that speed you'll get a £60 fine and 3 points.

The scamership will have looked and the photos and the distance travelled using the lines on the road as markers and used that to calculate the speed of both bikes and then sent the NIP to the speeding bike that triggered the camera I think.

Just pay up and take it on the chin.
