My Bullet`s speedo often read 140kmph, somehow it doesn`t seem the same speed.

Imagine the M1--M6 or your local dual carriageway with that ratio of bikes to cars/lorries etc.....DROOOOOL..If only, eh ??
Towards the middle the test rider has obviously become aware of our friend with the camera and tries to shake him off with some "iffy" maneuvering ......No sign of any roadside cameras, Police cars and the like.........The rear suspension did seem to be having trouble coping judging by the number of times his rump-steak went airborne !! Assuming it does market here in the UK any guesses at this early stage as to price and ------- more importantly------- the Insurance rating ??
Let's hope that RE have learnt valuable lessons and we don't get TWO pistons decapitating themselves this time !!------Would you buy one , and if so ---why ??

Only thing missing from the clip was a Camel-cart carrying an over-width load in the fast lane traveling in the wrong direction.
Mind you, it could also be a fake video? As there were no Cha wallahs stand on the road side, nor cows sleeping in the middle of the road...

I wonder how many 750 test bikes wear-out compared with the number destroyed in crashes?
