car tire slaying the dragon...

The amazing thing is that he is able to do that without KIPASS.

There are way too many videos out there showing bikes with car tires shredding the curves to question the traction aspect.

When you corner an owner though, they will admit that it took getting used to, and how road imperfections will cause the tire to track which will pull the bike.

They also wear the tire out a lot faster than a car would.

I saw a 1400 at the Moonshine Lunch run with a wide rear car tire mounted.  Look strange to me.

Wow!, but don't goldwingers have FOBs at least?

Goldwing basically is a car, so that seems appropriate.

Tis funny

I'm 61, but I hope I never get old enough to buy a double-butt Gold Wing and put car tires on it. Maybe I'll consider it when the dementia kicks in..

Well, you really won't have to consider it but it WILL be a surprise every time you find it in the garage....

It will be like 'Groundhog Day' every day- something like "wtf, a Gold Wing with car tires? Oh yeah...next day, "wtf, a Gold Wing with car ties? Oh yeah...ad infinitum, or until I kick it.

Watch out for those slush filled potholes!

I know this stuff, because in my previous life I was not only a petroleum engineer but a car tire designer.
Trust me on this! (say the voices in my head) 
 

You hear voices as well?  I thought it was just me.
