A couple years ago a fellow decided to take a brand new 150 from maine to keywest. He decided to take the freeways/expressways at WOT. No he did not get run over but he did kill the scooter motor some where past halfway there! Maybe a thousand miles maybe less to kill it. In ca there are just way too many nut cases running the roads the way I hear it. When I lived in Il. the speed limit on the expressways was 55 yet if you ran 65 during rush hours you would get ran over, you needed to go 70 or what ever the line of traffic was going at, and it was bumper to bumper damn near as close to each other as a nascar race. Any one out there then on a 150 was on a suicide mission. Looks like vegas got its share of nuts too, the mom who was shot for going to slow is dead dead dead. And the killer is still running the roads of vegas. I would second above comments even thought I rode my Vino 125 pegged all the time and it never blew up in 10yrs. You should not ride a highway in which you cannot keep up with or ride ahead of traffic. Too many angry people out there. They could kill you for spite. I would never go on an Espressway at a lower speed than traffic. If they are going 90 you have to go 90. To ride CA highways you need at least a 350cc that can handle 80 mph for long distances. I remember riding my RD350 to San Diego one time with friends and traffic was cruising at 95 all the way from Newport to SD.
