Dumba** mistake
This weekend I was cruising on the interstate going about 70-75 mph, heavy traffic, switching lanes, looking over my shoulder, riding defensively, etc. My mind was clear and I was focused but my right hand and fingers were somewhat numb (2 hours of riding). As I reached with my right thumb which was stiff and had no feeling to engage right side turn signal to get out of the fast lane (cager on my a**), I accidently hit the kill switch. The bike turned off and i began coasting. Luckily, my two right lanes were somewhat clear (cagers slowed down when they saw me veering right) and I was able to coast into the right shoulder.
Couple of things:
1. Has this happened to anyone else?
2. I plan to not use my right turn signals ever again.
3. I ruined a good pair of exofficio underwear.

I did it last summer on I-10 doing about 75 mph. I instinctively pulled in the clutch and coasted to the breakdown lane. Lesson learned, I hope to never make that mistake again. I remember the bike sputtering and popping like all hell the second after I hit the switch. My brother in law who was following me thought I had a major breakdown.
