I was wondering what it is like to ride at 70mph compared to 50?
I'm training on a CG125 and i will be doing my test on it.
On a bigger bike you'll hardly notice the difference between 70 and 50, the SV cruises totally effortlessly at 70 and higher, even bigger bikes will do big numbers at a canter in total stability and calmness. Naked bikes are a bit different, but you get used to it.

I imagine a CG will struggle to crack 70 and it might not be so effortless
