They've spelt "BELOW" wrong - the "L" has become a "Y" and the "W" become an "ND".

:smt003 flew over a few heads I feel :smt003
.... thought it might .... they must be the ones without the quickness of thought to cope with the higher speeds.

(sorry chaps - just kidding).


BTW has anybody considered this may be a carefully crafted plot by our beloved constabulary - go in to print that Falco riders don't go fast, monitor the forums and wait for us to post up our signed confessions of breaking the limit by at least 30 mph ??

:smt087

..... can anyone tell me what these things are like to ride above 65mph (phew - I think I got away with it!)

Very nice, but 65mph it'd be more fun in a bath chair :smt003

I'm not from another planet Gio, it just feels like anything below 100mph is stopped sometimes.

When I'm on a track or private property that is. :smt002

..... not sure you're strictly correct there Kwackerz .....

Certainly depends on Where you are or even When you did it

.... and the result of you doing it depends on whether you get caught (unless you are a member of Her Majestey's police service tesing their car to see how it will perform ......)
