Fredodido, mine did the exact thing yours did.

I talked to a local long time Kawi/Husky mechanic, and he said this was caused due to oil starvation. Mine was leaning on the side stand, so the oil all went to the left side of the case and caused the seizure.

He said to prevent this, he runs one full quart of oil in the trans.
