For the first time my Zed went on the motorway today. Up until today z has been only on A roads. After staying too long on the garage, I gave the zed a good thrash... :smash:

 

Oh boy, I didn't thought my zed could drink that fast... and I thought my bike was expensive.

 

What a drive, my instinct tells me you are on the speed limit and when I'm about to hold the speed the Z screams "there are still unused gears" :duffer: what can I say...

 

Just a question though, mine is only a N/A how are those TT owners coping :rolleyes:

Petrol is relatively cheap so its ok to get 16mpg commuting and knocking about, its worth it for the fun factor anyway.

or it could be a tt with a na diff

There is only a 200rpm difference between the TT and NA at motorway speeds..hang on, I'll check the the calculations....

Manual TT - 3030rpm

Manual NA - 3340rpm both at 80 mph
