I think it was Hawk who suggested that the on line game needed a way to discourage foolish heroics. As in real life if an overtake is too risky you should drop back and wait for a better opportunity and ride with the intention of staying upright to the end and ride within the limits of the bikes handling at any given time.
Falling should have some sort of consequence, this may be especially true once the physics/bikes are fixed and you only have yourself to blame otherwise i can see this all starting again with the next beta.
Maybe the respawn needs a 'hardcore' option in the server rules setup to give hosts some flexibility with several different rules and experiment a bit. Maybe developing the server rules options is a better long term solution.
From the degree of discussion the respawn seem to have risen to the top of the 'must fix' list
