Yep, I busted one in a very remote location some years ago on my Honda CB450.

I had to pull the now dead clutch lever in, put the bike in first gear and push the starter button, the bike would lurch forward and begin running, I could then carefully snick it into the following gears and ride otherwise normally.

Stopping was even more interesting... put it into neutral, and kill the engine. When stopped with engine off, kick it into first gear, then repeat the above to go again!
