[QUOTE="DaJuice, post: 591801, member: 17449"] wfooshee, I hear ya. I immediately assumed operator error (and I've seen enough posts that make you go WTF to know that stuff like that needs to be said). Again, everything happened so fast that I don't recall everything for sure, but I don't think I ever touched the brakes. I was too busy trying to stay upright, I never did get the clutch pulled in and the engine died when I came to a stop. I wanted to get off the road so I started the engine back up and let the clutch out and it wouldn't move. I shut the engine back off with the key and it rolled freely. I normally ride sweep when I'm in a group which I was doing this day so no one I was riding with saw any of this. I'm not sure if the smoke I saw was from the fender melting or if I was doing a burnout with the back tire when I tried to compensate for what ever was making me stop. I didn't notice any rubber on the road where it happened which makes me think it was from the fender. I've got 6,600 miles on the bike since this riding season started in the great white north and this is the only incident. [/QUOTE]
