Correct answer
60 km/h on a motorway or dual carriageway.
On motorways and dual carriageways, the general minimum for motor vehicles is 60 km/h. Lower speeds are permitted when traffic, vehicle or road conditions prevent maintaining it safely, among other specified cases. Do not force that speed when unsafe. On other roads, the general rule is half the general maximum for the vehicle category and road, not 60 km/h everywhere. This motorcycle’s general motorway or dual-carriageway maximum outside built-up areas is 120 km/h, subject to lower limits; there is no general increase to 130 km/h on certain sections.
