Not much riding to do this time of year. At the end of Nov. I did mange to change out the tires on my bike. I decided to try an alternative tire on the rear. If you look at the pic you may be a bit confused at the rear tire on the right. The front tire is a stock Bridgestone, the rear tire on the right is a car tire. If you want to know more about putting a car tire on your bike, search for "DarkSide tire" and you will get all you need to know. Not all bikes have a tire size that works in a car application. I did get to put about 100 miles on these tires and while I am not sold on the car tire deal, it does offer some distinct advantages. You are probably asking, "How can a car tire work on a motorcycle?" This seems to be a recent trend, but I dont think so. I did this years ago when I had no money and needed a tire. I worked at a tire shop, and put one on an old Triumph I got form a co worker. Maybe you are saying, "It cant hande properly". Well, I can lean my pig of a cruiser over far enough with this tire to drag the floor board hard enough to lift my left foot up into the shifter forcing a gear change at a high rate of speed. dont take my word for it, researchit and find out if its right for you.
