Speed is relative! It is more than 10 years since I rode a GSXR750SRAD with 120 rwhp dyno reading. It made my eyeballs rattle around and exited low gear corners on it's back wheel!
GSXR1000s tended to get in the way in corners and pull away on the straights. Familiar story.
Riding a Norton last time out the best fun was swapping places with a Swedish guy on a well prepared 1972 750 Ducati a couple of times a lap....even back markers can have fun
It is a question of judging your skills and potential well. My potential, like yours is not what it was, race/age classes make it more difficult to maintain the potential of the Norton.
Twin Mikunis help a little ;-)
