I dont think this had anything to do with the fact that it was an R1....just about any bike out there will do 60-70 easy, and i bet that's what he was doing. It was just passed the small boat channel going southbound so i bet he just wasnt paying attention (maybe goofing off) and came over the hump and saw the traffic suddenly....but it was a little ways after the hump...so i'm doubting myself on that.
