Narrative:

I had folded the CASTA2 departure on the yoke clip after briefing it in lax. Upon leaving 10;000 ft; I started to accelerate to normal climb speed as my first officer switched to center. La center said to maintain 250 KTS at which point I slowed back down from 275 KTS. I was speeding for less than a minute. I simply forgot the speed restriction. I feel the chart is poorly designed as the restriction is in view during the briefing; but gets folded out of view during the departure. Additionally; the FMC should be hard coded with this restriction as it is not an 'expect to maintain;' but an actual limit.
