    You can do everything with a car tire, as you can with a motorcycle tire. What's the issue?

    You apparently have no or little knowledge of the "Dark Side"! It is not about saving money It's about getting 4 times the mileage compared to a MT. It's about superior handling in the rain! It's about great cornering! It's about a smoother ride! It's about the increased "load rating" compared to a MT. Sorry, just venting

    You forgot better braking too...



    A nice analogy is in order here...

    ...I used to despise the look of that nasty creamed beef that was served in the mess hall. Looked like puke. Until one day, I upped the courage to try it. It was... most excellent.

    That's one of the things I miss most about my military days.

    and as far as handling the twisties it is obvious he has not run into Yellow Wolf or many other darksiders that you will only see their tail lights in the twisties.
    Everyone has an opinion, even if they have never rode a darkside MC. I respect that, but until you do you really don't have a clue as to how they handle good or bad IMO.

    Damn where were you stationed? I never saw SOS that nice in the Army.

    This is U.S. Army creamed beef. You can see why there is apprehension initially towards consuming it
