Excellent thought! I drive a full-size pickup truck and I KNOW I do not have a very good field of vision behind me, so I am very careful when changing lanes so I don't squish an econobox. The problem comes when somebody in a sports car or on a sport bike comes up fast behind me - it is really hard to judge whether it would be safer to move or stay put. Usually I will signal and move right if I can if someone wants to go faster than me.

I know you have good intentions... but physics comes into play here... the faster a bike goes, the more gradual an arc the rider will make even under extreme cornering...this has to do with the huge gyroscopic effects that he must fight against in order to steer / turn at high speeds. The front wheel does NOT want to turn. So again, my advice to you is this:

He has every intention on passing you (at a high rate of speed)....He knows what he has to do in order to pass you. If you change that equation at the last minute, it is possible and highly likely that "bad things" will happen. So just stay put. If you want to "vent" lay on the horn, flip him the one finger salute or what ever, as he passes you, you'll get your message across.
