.. for now. Looks like something in the engine failed. Bike is at my brother's place right now. Need to trailer it back to my house and open it up.
Was running perfect this morning, did a u-turn, heard a quick 'whirring' sound and it cut off. Won't turn over. Put in gear, the rear is completely locked, so something is seized in the engine somewhere. Bearing journal, maybe... who knows...
Oh well, 10 years and not quite 50K miles. Guess it's time to start looking for a second bike so I can work on this bit by bit. Guessing major engine mod time.
