Cut the straps?

I was kinda wondering why he was putting a tractor tire on a ZX9R rim.

Probably cause it's from ADVrider and it might be modded for adventure riding. More than a few builds on there... http://www.advrider.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=83
Even a dual sport HD...

I will never understand why some people spend boatloads of money to modify something to do what it was never designed to do, when there is a vast array of machines designed specifically for the task available for cheaper. Some people like to be unique I suppose.

Yeah, I wouldn't do it, but I admire the work. I'd mod something cause it cheaper than a replacement...or better.
That HD has a billet swingarm as one of it's many custom parts...
Yea, it's to stand out, which for a motorcycle is a major plusIf I had the extra money and time I'd love to mod the hell out of a bike.
