60mph front brake failure 06 Dyna

Coming back from Sycamore H-D, overtaking a line of cars, bend ahead so I apply the brakes and ping, front lever hits the grip and some object flew upwards, over my shoulder and into a field.



At this point the bends is coming up fast and I can't just rely on the rear brake so I crank the bike over and round it went. A lot faster than I intended and lost some of the undercarriage but made it.



The object must have been the friction material from one of the pads cause just the backplate is there now.



Anyone else had this happen? (06 FXDBI)
