Sounds like a warped rotor or bad rear brake

Brake pads hanging up. Get it to the dealer and do a rear brake servise and adjustment.
Sorry to hear about the bad news.

Were any mods made to the brake system?

Sounds like there is debris in the line somewhere.

Rebuild and flush entire brake system. 'Nothing to take chances with.

As you found out, a lock up can cause you to crash.

You should get a new rotor as the one you have or had is likely damaged.

Bleed lines to see if air us in lines?

I too had this happen. I had my calipers chromed. Small flecks of chrome got in brake line and to master cylinder. Locked brakes up tight after application. Warped both rotors. Luckily I noticed while going quite slowly. 'Would have crashed at speed.

In any event, debris in the line can do this. Air alone could be bled out.

I replaced everything. Nothing to take chances on.

Great medium sized dealer!! I bought my bike from them. Aaron and Dixie were as helpful as they could be.
