It was on the Whitchurch to Nantwich road & the guy was already moving at about 60mph when I came up behind him. My bottle went at about 110... I am getting old 20 years ago I would have kept pushing, but not anymore.

Once going they are quick!. Ive got a 540 MSport. It will tick over at a ton and before you know it bam...130mph and its not even revving!!. Would take a brave well ridden bike to out corner it too - although only when Steve is driving with the traction control firmly switched on !. Im more of a gentle driver!!!

Bought a nice shiny Remus exhaust for it to unleash the V8 and then its going in for derestriction ...
