Greg and I were on a road trip to an Iowa VJMC rally.
Took a day trip and ended up in a downpour on WJL.
Some how the spark plug wires and clutch cable routing created an unfulfilled circuit when they were soaking wet. When I went to grab clutch and front brake my hands, arms, and chest completed the circuit, every time I tried to stop I was getting severely shocked by ignition pulses. That'll get your attention! Fortunately when the rain quit the shocking stopped also. Whew. For some reason @GLJ took great humor in my misery!
Pic was after a mile of wet limestone gravel road. All the bikes ended up coated in white paste. We found a big hose and washed them down back at the motel but found "welded on" lime coating in crevices forever after.
