Narrative:

At sjc there is a note in the 10-7 to reference the sfo 10-1 for speed below class B. My first officer mentioned that he wanted to keep the flaps out to stay slow. I asked him why. He couldn't give an answer. We looked at the 10-7 but somehow both the first officer and I missed the class B note. Around this time; I had to call maintenance control and get an MEL added to the plane for a gpu receptacle that was inoperative. The plane was late arriving; so everyone wanted to get boarded and get going. I never came back to my first officer to get more on why he wanted to stay slow. We departed and cleaned up on schedule. The first officer kept the plane at green dot (approximately 220 KIAS). I asked if he wanted managed speed. He said no; he wanted to stay at green dot. He couldn't remember why he needed to stay slow; but something was nagging at him. Finally he blurted out; we're below the class B. I immediately went looking for the 10-1. It doesn't exist for sjc. You have to pull up the sfo charts. That is ridiculous; by the way. We need to have that chart accessible in the 10-7 for sjc or a 10-1 for sjc. Anyway; I found that we needed to be at 200 KIAS until 6000 at 25 miles and 8000 until 30 miles. I got the DME off sfo and found we were at 30 miles. So; we were overspeed for most of the departure. There is a note in the 10-7 to reference the sfo chart. But I missed it because of the different things going on in the cockpit. My first officer did a good job keeping it at 220 instead of speeding up to 250. I have since made a note on my chart the DME and altitudes on the LOUPE4.

Narrative: At SJC there is a note in the 10-7 to reference the SFO 10-1 for speed below Class B. My FO mentioned that he wanted to keep the flaps out to stay slow. I asked him why.
