Learner drivers are only permitted to ride at a maximum speed of 80km/h.

Police said that given the excessive speed and his previous traffic history, the man's motorcycle was seized for three months.

He has been summoned to appear in court.

Acting Inspector Matthew Shea said police will continue to target high-risk road behaviours to reduce serious and fatal crashes.

"We are committed to engaging and working with the community to provide effective and efficient policing services and urge all driver's and riders to adhere to the posted speed limits and drive to the conditions," he said.
