I know I have seen a Youtube video of a ZX14 running a car tire. Anyone else try it?

You've got to be kidding me? LSR on a flat tire? Look at how wide a dragster slick is? It grows in and up. YOu are going to X and Y a hard car tire? I will grow in a U or a V or a flat U more like it. See that slick moving in a straight line?
Then the angle over. you are on all that rubber to wear those edges out faster than than running flat. You'll see cord at the edges, not flat center like a bike tire. Hey, your bike, your idea, your ass is grass is on your call.

That rider is a cautious rider. Either I push that idiot or have him follow me and suck him into some turn. Now, does the tire work? I can she it from here someone needs to snap that handle bar down.
So stupid, put a front tire on it too. Now show me how it handles. Once that front tire tips and comes back, bet it hops to the other side and tank slaps the shit out of the bike's neck.

Big cruiser with no lean angle, like a boss hawg, sure, but a sportbike?
Like a mantra, "Why would I care what anyone else rides" but this I cannot brain. Anyone ever put car tires on a zx10 I wonder?

Ok, what is the longest wearing tire that will fit the ZX14?You all have wobble problem complaints and to see that car tire on a bike, just makes me laugh on the commode. Waiting around for a bladder to unload, I stuck my hand out and said, take your hand, put your karate chop side on the table. Roll your hand left and right. That is a motorcycle tire on the bike.
Lay your palm down. That is a car tire. Go slow lifting up to the karate side. Drop it down. Now you have to twist your wrist to move to the other side of the tire's edge. How did that feel flipping the hand all flip flop? Lame, right? Lame thinking is my thinking someone does not see both tires roll out the dealer door the same time too. That same says wear pattern no matter your logic if one tire looks worn an now you have to be in the dunce cap position not to work the logic. Is the other tire equally worn they rolled equally. D'uh no, day look da same, d'uh is da drama.
Tire mantra says... The non-dunce cap wear here is... "What ARE the longest wearing TIRES that will fit the ZX14?"
