From Preston way, I'd only take the M6 as far as the M56, then switch to the A49.
At Leominster, I'd them turn left on the A44 and follow that in Oxford/shire.
Much more relaxed and enjoyable on the bike.

Have you removed the rear wheel balance weights, warped the front brake discs, polished the seat, unbalanced the throttle bodies, replaced the rear sprocket with an eccentric one and do you wear chaps?

Do you think doing all of the above will improve my riding

It'll certainly heighten the pleasure you get from a good ride and that is the most important thing.
