I have a 08 1098 and for those that do not read in the 1098 section I had a crash last week. I was riding down the road and I felt the front end diving down as if I was grabbing the brake lever and pulsing the brakes but I was not touching the lever.
My question is what would happen if the front brakes were dragging a bit?
I would expect that they would get hot, smell and become kinda useless like on a car when riding the brakes down a hill.
I think what happend in my accident is the front brakes were grabbing and then got to a point that they locked up. This all happend in the matter of about 3 seconds driving at 35-45 straight not increasing or decreasing my speed.
