I was riding at about 25-30 MPH when I came to a stop sign. As I slowed down and squeezed the clutch lever in to downshift the engine instantly cut off and the idle needle dropped from about 3000 RPM to zero instantly. The bike then felt really light because the engine was cut off and it was like I had no control of the bike. Luckily no cars were behind or in front of me or there would have been a possible collision.
