    Darksider - conviction registered

    Seems to be a lot of bikers here that must have a lot of experience on darkside tires to be able to make judgment and condemn them. I ride a big bike a Rocket 3 and have 25000 km's on a darkside tire. would never go back to a MC tire. I do not argue anymore about the benefits or cons of car...

    Standup wheelie down the 403.

    How old are you 2 wet? somewhere between 17-25? maturity has not reached you yet? I think its the other way around. Idiots who do wheelies on any 400 series hiway are the doushbags.

    49cc moped, bicycle with motor

    I had a bicyle with a Chinese gas engine on it. Rode it for almost 3 years going to work from Mississauga to Keele and Dundas. Not once did I ever get hassled. I just started peddling when I saw a cop car.

    I disagree with you. Experience does = knowledge. Knowledge gained from real life experience is far more valuable than getting it any other way. I do not have to give you any examples of this, you know what I am talking about. I also know a lot more than Brian does about running a CT on a...

    Brian, you are a typical anti car tire know it all. You have never even tried a car tire, but knows everything there is to know about how it handles. How can you? I communicate thru forums with several hundred other bikers that have car tires and not one of them has had and accident that had...

    More car tire(on a mc) fun

    Car tires are far stronger than motorcycle tires. Consider the fact that they have to carry 4000 lbs. My bike is fine in the twisties ,I just do not go as fast as a sportsbike, why should I? Scenery and enjoying the ride is my thing, not going down some twistie road at 200KMS an hour like I ve...

    No it was a good idea for them, why not market a motorcycle tire for 2-3 times the cost of a car tire and get all these suckers to believe they are better! We will get rich!

    Whether it a motorcycle tire or car tire is not an issue with insurance companies. As long as the tire is DOT approved its ok on a bike. A reminder also that a lot of bikes up until about 1978 had car tires on the rear. Heres an email that was sent by another Darksider to his insurance company...

    Nice Triumph

    JC, if you do not know how to pick up a 900 lb bike after toppling it on its side then you should not be riding anything other than 250cc CBR. This is a big boys bike, not a dinky toy for wussys.

    Bull, show me a touring tire that will give me 30,000 Km,s. The last set of "Touring" tires that I had on my bike lasted 8000 Kms. It was a POS Metzler. From new to cords showing, only 8000 Km's. Thats once or twice a year for me to change a tire. They might be ok on a lightweight sportsbike...

    Fiery, You are quite the expert and seem to know "who" and "what" Darksiders look like. You must have a lot of experience running Darkside tires to be able to make knowlegable comments. What you just described are mostly Harley bikers and squids that ride sportsbikes.and neither of those ride...
