    is that over a set distance or do you just have to get up to that speed?

    Its a natural skill I think - I bet he was in better control on motorway and A road (ie. paying more attention) than a lot of drivers

    He needs to use his mirrors more to avoid rozzers but they do have a habbit of just 'appearing' from nowhere!

    I was near in the same group, I was caught doing a silly long distance two up when I was younger
    on a B road.the ban got chucked out as the cops statements didnt match and the distance they
    said they said they seen me cover 900 meters but the vantage point they were using couldnt see
    more than 100 meters so I just got a load of points and a ticking off.wised up a bit after that and
    kept it to private roads.

    It certainly would!

    If the front wheel is off the deck for more than 1 second it goes in to fault mode! :(
