The bike slowed down rapidly on its own (i didn't touch the brakes). It wasn't a blow out as such but left a big hole in the tyre (20p sized).

Had a similar experience, similar speed, overtaking on a dual carriageway. Bike slowed, started wagging at the back, managed to slow using engine braking only and got to the side of the road. Bit of a brown trouser moment. Luckily I was only about a mile from a friendly bike garage got new tyres fitted within the hour.
