I know it is terrain, weather, traffic and other infuriating restrictions.....but when you finally find that open highway and you are ready to cruise, what speed is your preferred speed?
When I get away from town and it is open road I find me liking the 77-82 MPH range. I have gone faster and slower, but it seems that speed range is where I always seem to find myself setting the speed control.
How about you?

On boring straight stretches, around 10 over works for me :yes:.

10 over on almost every interstate is what all seem to drive. 80 seems the best for me. 'gw-smiley'

I like 80 too. Luckily we have 75 mph open interstates in AZ.

If I do 80mph, they take my bike off me, although the Northern Territory are going back to unlimited speed limits shortly. Wouldn't want to hit a water Buff at high speed though.

I came here prepared to answer "80" but it seems as that's already been done :clap2::clap2:

I am the third fastest vehicle I can see.
Sometimes the second...if I've had my "danger vitamins" that morning.

I never ride faster than my angel can fly and it seems to be around 80 or 10 over on restricted freeways, but 1 under in town as we have a lot of speed traps around here.:icon_evil:

About 70 is the most pleasant, but long stretches at 80-90 are no problem.
