Why run a car tyre on a bike? The tyre profile looks wrong for cornering, which is where you need the grip. Does it actually hold the road in high speed corners?

Crusier, it doesn't matter. It couldn't lean with a motorcycle tyre on it anyways.

What I dont get is why people bother to do this? If it is to save money, what about the front tyre? They must be extremely boring riders if they dont have to replace the front tyre as often as the rear, so at best they are only saving one tyre for every 4 tyres they would have otherwise changed. And what about the obviously increased probability of crashes and the costs involved in that? So you ruin your bikes handling, safety and looks in exchange for maybe $50 less costs every 30,000km.

I'm the one that posted the original and would like to know how you flipped it, thanks, Harold.
It is on an o2 gl1800a, I am now running a runflat instead of the non-runflat.

nice video Harold. I meant to get an okay for reposting it, hope you don't mind. It was easy to flip. I did this quick for a friend at work using Windows Movie Maker. Can't recall specifically how I did it, but the hardest part was opening up the program.
The friend that was referencing this video has since gone over to the darkside with his Suzuki Intruder. I think he's using a Goodyear Tripletread.

@sherbler Hi
I'm a Darksider as well, and I use a Hankook Optimo H426. It's a 195/60/16, which is the widest I can use on my Vulcan Classic 1500. I ride at 32psi, what psi were you using for this video ? I hear a scraping noise occasionally in your video, I know it's not the floorboards scraping, but could you tell me what is doing that ? (just curious)
Thanks for sharing.
