250 was the limit then. Really madness, the RGV did over 130😁. First ride on it - started on a gravel hard shoulder - wheel spin and away. Looked at the speedo 70 ish. Slowed down for mate to catch up and then stopped to wait for him. Could I get the bike to go on a tarmac surface??? Noooo. Maybe 10 stalls before I got going. From there it was reasonably plain sailing and at that time speeding wasn’t really a thing as the country had bigger issues - lucky me. Things have changed - mostly for the good now. Speeding is defo now a thing!!!
Sorry.
Was a wry comment that you were allowed 250cc bikes as learners.
