Agreed! let's do that. With four tires under you losing one can be unnerving. With two tires under you losing one can spell disaster. I had a bike sieze up in a turn. The motor just locked up, it seemed like forever before I got the idea to pull in the clutch which I did and recovered. I stopped it in the grass between lanes and kicked it over and walked away. I never saw it again and never missed it.
