Default Re: MOT passed then crashed.

I had similar last year on my pointy. I was lucky enough to get the foot down to save the bike, but went 180 degrees and ended up facing back the way I'd come. The road was wet and greasy. I later found that, on the rear brake pad, the friction material had come away from the metal backing and was floating inside the caliper. I like to think this was the "reason" it happened, and that because I've replaced the faulty pads, have confidence that it won't happen again. I hope you get a "reason" too.
