“I have a 2002 Yamaha Road Star Warrior. I bought the motorcycle new from the dealer as a 2002 leftover in may of 2003. A few weeks after I bought the motorcycle, I was riding down the road and the bike started to slow down on its own. Being a few miles from a friend's house, I decided it would be safer to stop there, so I continued on to his house. When I pulled in the driveway, I noticed my rear brake rotor was glowing red and the whole caliper was smoking and hot. The brake line melted and leaked fluid on the hot caliper and then caught fire. …”
