I had that happen on a 650ccm Dnepr motorcycle and it was quite scary (sidecar was detached at the moment, so the bike had surprisingly good acceleration). Fortunately nothing bad happened, but friend broke his neck in a similar accident on 750ccm Kawasaki (it was his first motorcycle and he owned it only for two weeks). Now when I ride more powerful motorcycles (160-200hp), I always hold one or two fingers on the clutch.
