| I was riding my motorcycle, (2006 suzuki m109r boulevard) on i465 in the middle lane at approximately 12:30 pm. i heard a loud thud and all of the sudden my rear wheel locked completely up. my rear end slid out to the right, but somehow i was able to countersteer the motorcycle and keep it upright. with just pure luck i was able to reach the shoulder of the interstate after sliding for about 100 feet with no bodily harm. after looking at the motorcycle i realized that the swing arm (which houses the drive shaft), had broken completely and caused the back tire to lock up. i did some research online, and have found that i am not the only person that this has happened to. there are many instances on the website m109riders.com with pictures that are identical to the incident that i experienced. the break in the swing arm happened in the exact spot that all of the others did. *tr | |||
