And regard speed limits there only there while your been coached the training. After you passed it's a different matter so it seems, but using the same same techniques you have and planning. It seems to be a but a pickle, I have been told to make the overtake using the appropriate speed to do it safely. From what I have read hear +10%. If that's the case why do they ride zzr 1400, blackbirds, cbr600 and everything inbetween.

Not being rude but what a load of tosh, we are not teaching you to just pass a test, but hopefully to take away skills that will make you a safer, smoother and more capable motorcyclist for the rest of your m/cycling days. I would never tell an associate to forget anything taught on the course. Obviously speed limits are up to the individual when riding away from the observer, wether they stick to them after is up to them. As to why we ride bikes capable of exceeding speed limits, what bikes nowadays aren't, we all ride bikes that we enjoy riding as does everybody else on the road, comfort, handling, acceleration, looks, everybody looks for different things in bikes, thats why there are so many to choose from, daft question really!
