you should try doing a video facing forward, watching behind is a little weird.
No...seriously...I went out and rode them both in the same day on the same roads...the difference is the angle and placement of the seat along with the peg position. The seat tilts your torso towards the tank on the RR whereas the 1100 seat is more flat and causes a bend in the torso which makes for more strain. The pelvis orientation on the RR is much more suited to utilizing core musculature.
As for the rearview...tomorrow's ride will be front and rear and side...stay tuned...film at eleven.
