Bikecop...more than likely a heat issue....like these fellas said.
Hey Akron....I have a neighbor that used to keep a hendfull of ball bearings in his younger years for such those occasions when a cager screws with you to the point of blow-up.......as you get older you get a little wiser I guess.

I have been there as well... I perfer to get off the bike at a light... when he leans away from the window when you walk up... reach in and pull the keys out of the ignition!!! give them a good chuck! no more problems... done this more than once... also had my @$$ handed to me doing this so it does have a tendancy to backfire... ha ha ha

everything i've been taught in motor. def driving courses taught by motor officers did not include trying to out run the tailgater or or who ever is on your tail. i've always looked for an out and just let it go. in this one horse town the local LEO won't do anythjing unless they the offense occur. i can only presume this came from an off duty LEO and is assisted by fellow LEO's. maybe more off duty types should take care of drivers like this instead turning the heads because they don't want to get involved. glad you didn't experience any damage or pers.injury. just wish us joe civilians could get the action you got.

i've had the heat mngnt kick in on my 05 fxdli in a interstate parking lot, finally got moving, the eng. heat stabilized and didn't experience any stalls. ride safe
