Seems like you caught up to the guy in front of you in the other vid

How would you critique body positioning vs bike lean?

What other Vid?

Not sure what your question is but body position and bike lean are separate things.

This video is on a road that's generally down hill so the 250s lack of power isn't as big an issue, where as the other one is on an uphill. The first video I could get the bike past 85mph because of the grade, so they just walked on me.

He wasn't waiting me, I think without the CBR and R-1 to follow he's not as fast.

We get sepperated a bit getting passed cars because everyone is rather patient and waits till it safe. That's why I was behind at the beginning of the second video.

I think you're a little more brave than I am on roads...

But your mic setup rocks. I could listen to that all day.
