I think the big difference between bicycle sliding and motorcycle cycling is that there's a very high possibility of a leg being stuck under the bike whilst sliding.
A motorbike weighs a bit more than a bicycle (other than when I have the panniers on
). The chances of cheese gratery skin is therefore much higher on a motorbike.
As for me, I'm really annoyed. On my souped up MTB I was determined to exceed 50mph (in the flatlands of Essex). 47.9mph was my best, having wheel sucked a mate and then gone for it on a downhill. I ran out of hill, felt fine, and would have got a bit more speed had I overtaken him earlier.
I then met Mrs Nutty and my speed attempts dwindled rapidly
Last year, on rushing to the station to collect Mrs Nutty, I only just managed to get above 35mph on that same downhill on the Audax bike (which has a pretty high top gear and 700C wheels instead of 26")
