BusaWhipped went down

[BusaWhipped]

Was riding along around 6:15 pm yesterday. Got off the highway, hit the front brake, and the cruise control didn't disengage. I let off the brake and hit it again. The front brake locked up.

That short skid is all it takes to put a bike down. I need to remember to hit the kill switch first if it happens again so the back tire isn't pushing the front tire while braking.

Man, that's a bad sight. Just glad you're ok.

Glad you're ok Dennis.. ATGATT!!!! Thank God you're a believer in that!


I'm hoping you figure out what the issue was with the cruise, maybe it'll help out others to make sure it doesn't happen to them.


Heal up quick, hope to see you this summer!

I saw the pics on FB first Dennis... Scared the heck outta me.. Hope you're not too sore today...

I have LED brake light mod with the cruise control mod. The CC is wired through a relay mod that the brake light is supposed to trip to disengauge it. I guess all of these mods don't always work together.

Just the wrist. Nothing on me is broken, but i broke the right mirror off the bike with it as I was coming off the high side.

Semi treated me to ice cream after I got out of the ER. Ice cream makes everything better.

Agreed.. Only thing better than ice cream, is ice cream that someone else pays for..
