“First problem was with the throttle. Something broke causing the bike to run with wide open throttle and no way to slow the engine down without turning the switch off. I was riding the bike on I-95 running 70 MPH when this happened. The next issue was with an oxygen sensor causing the bike to run rough. The most recent problem; something in the rear brake system broke, throwing brake fluid out along with sparks and flames. I had no rear brake to stop with, only front brake. …”
