The risk
When the motorcycle is coninuously ridden at low speed, the heat generated affects the PPTC (polymer positive temperature coefficient) device of the ECU and the motor cycle may enter into fail safe mode. This makes it impossible to shift gear and the driving force may be lost and it will not be possible to continue riding.
