Scaarey! My TZR250 seized once and locked the rear. I did go down the road. I was on my back before I even knew what was happening. I was totally unhurt but shaken up for an hour or so as I was doing over 100mph and slid right accross in to the fence on the other side of the road. :smt009

Not fool proof either.

I've had two UJ's go and one support bearing that went with quite a bang just after I'd "knocked it off" entering a village, possibly as a result of the earlier UJ failures. I was very glad it didn't happen 1/4 mile earlier....

Glad to hear you are basicaly ok, if a little soiled.
Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can enjoy today
