GO, yes, extra margin would have been available on the CB1100 - better brakes if I wanted to haul it down and stay behind the truck, or drop a gear and get past it quicker than a Triumph. On the CB300R, would have put the ABS into play, passing probably wouldn't be much of an option.
And I just realized, all of my closest calls in traffic, including my one incident of actual contact, on this Bonneville, about a mile from where this truck squeezed me, happened while I was wearing hi-viz gear.
Black or dark jacket, I usually get guys pulling onto the shoulder to make extra room for me. I dunno.
