WAS RETURNING FROM A VACATION TRIP AND BIKE STARTED SOUNDING FUNNY. THEN ON HIGHWAY LIGHTS AND GAUGES STARTED GOING ON THE INTERSTATE BIKE STALLED LALMOST LOCKING UP BIKE IN CURVE WHILE RIDING ON WET ROAD. SEVERAL TRACTOR TRAILERS WERE BEHIND ME AND NEARLY ALMOST KILLED ME FROM THE SUDDEN CHANGE OF SPEED DUE TO BIKE KILLING POWER. MANAGED TO GET TO SIDE OF INTERSTATE.
