Was cruising around a corner with my old '75 Honda CB360T motorcycle a number of years ago when I saw I was going a tad too fast and pressed on the foot brake pedal to slow down. Pedal broke and left me with no way to slow the bike down (front brakes in a corner are a bad idea as a rule!) except downshifting as fast as I could. Did that, but it wasn't enough, and ended up going off the road--luckily a back road with little traffic--then down a ditch, over a culvert, through some small trees and finally got it stopped with no further damage to me or it. Got the bike back on the road, drove the couple miles home VERY slowly, and when I looked over the pedal it became obvious a small crack had developed in its top (they're just bent steel tubing) and finally got bad enough to let the whole pedal bend down so far it wouldn't activate the brake any longer. Located another pedal, put it on, and drove the bike many more miles, but you can bet I looked the "new" pedal over VERY closely before putting it on!
