Funny you should mention me, as I sit here nursing bruised ribs and shattered ego from my crash last week where my Harley failed in the hard braking and avoidance maneuver.
(and laughing hurts)
And I have witnessed one crash with a long time Harley rider who just jammed on the rear brake and lost control.
