That's a good read!

There are a few roads that feel like that for me, where I leave the bike in 4th gear the whole time, never hit the brakes, yet I'm hitting 160-170 km/h between smooth corners, then back down to 120 for the corners, smooth line, roll on the throttle coming out and graze 170 again before backing off for the next corner.

Thanks for posting this!
