Well this whole thread IS in the Roadliner conference......even though we went through a TON of discussion before that was ever really mentioned.
And this practice IS known as the Dark Side, probably for good reason.

The guys riding "land yahts" can put tractor tires on them for all I care.

I just think they should qualify their recommendations a bit so some idiot kid with an R bike doesn't try to put a car tread on IT.

I am rather curious, though, about what caused 2 apparently past regulars, who I don't remember even seeing in the past 6 months or so, to suddenly re-appear seemingly on a mission to preach the gospel of the "Dark Side"......and to bring a new guy along with them.

Forgetting for the moment whether or not the actual subject has any merrit, I can't figure what the motivation is to "stir the pot". I'm just baffled and am kind of sorry I got suckered into the "discussion" at all.
