Last weekend I went riding then drove onto trailer, 7 days later (Sat.) I was ready to ride again.
Started my RS Venture & allowed it to warm up. As I engaged it into reverse & then forward the only thing moving was the RPM. I lifted the hood & noticed the clutch working but still had no movement forward or reverse. I excersised the park brake, sprayed some magic lubricant & whalla I was ready to ride.
Have other riders expereinced the brake to freeze up? First time this has happened to me. I checked my liquid levels & moving parts, all look good.

I noticed a problem with my new Vector. It was out of adjustment from the dealer (wouldn't hold on the tilted trailer) so when I went to adjust it, I found it wouldn't always fully release. When I disconnected the cable from the caliper and held the cable end, moving the engagement lever from off to on had a definite catch during part of the travel. I think the cable is defective.
It's on the list for follow up at the first service.
