    Yes, apparently it is. I've seen that figure on a few sites. IIRC
    speeding over 50kph always entailed a possible sentence.
    Not really. The French are actually quite reasonable now. Not many
    people I know, speed.

    Waah! What's reasonable about that? It's getting almost to the stage
    where the majority drive below the fucking speed limit.. Bunch of
    cunts. _And_ they flash me for overtaking on a white line. I mean,
    what business is it of their's? They're getting almiost as bad as the
    germans.

    Always knew the buggers couldn't handle fast machinery properly. God
    knows what will happen when they're let loose on over-107bhp[1]
    motorcycles.

    [1] Isn't that the actual limit? 107bhp, rather than a nice round
    100bhp?

    I'm thinking about CH, but I think Ace might have added me to his
    blocked senders list...

    Thank **** I'm 50 already because I don't want to see where all this
    cowardice and lack of imagination is heading

    Heheh, you're pretty much spot on. It's bloody annoying.

    Heh, it's more that they're paranoid, ITYF.
    It's actually 106BHP. Christ know why.

    How much power does a Voxan produce, I wonder?

    EU limits on bikes are expressed in kW. 106 bhp approximates to 80kW,
    maybe.

    I think it's 85KW, or something. The Système Internationale doesn't
    contain horses.

    Ben Guest

    That's what I was thinking. It'll be a round number in kW or Pa.

    78 kW, IIRC (AIUD).

    which is 107 PS I believe, so TOG was nearly right.
