Yeah, it all depends on how you are I think.

I rode when I still lived in Vancouver... albeit without a license, but then, over half of the people I rode with didn't have their license either (not that it makes it better). Point is, given the opportunity, I still managed to hold myself back from really gunning it down a clear stretch of highway, while others around me had no issue with blazing down Knight Street bridge at 200+ kph...

You'll know best just how far you'll take it on a bike... if you're planning on getting a Harley or something, then it's definitely safer than say if you were planning on getting an R6 or something...

Without even riding you should be able to ask yourself whether or not you can ride on a highway and go speed limit or slightly over but still within reason, or if you'll just shoot down the highway given a clear stretch of road going at 180+ kph...
