My cousin is not a motorcyclist and assumed the big Honda was like mine, an F6B. I was actually more interested in learning which brand/type of tire failed but Cousin didn't have access to police yard after he left.
I am perfectly aware that our motorcycle tires fail also - but we never hear about the darksider failures. thus the post.
peace out. and even more importantly our condolences to this man and his family.
