But as a dues paying officer of the court (Lawyer), can you, or ANYONE.... point me to a SINGLE instance where insurance coverage has been denied by any insurance company, anywhere, ever, due to a rider running a DOT complaint car tire that was used on a vehicle it was not designed for. IE, a car tire on a motorcycle. Cause in my decades of experience as an Attorney, I simply have NEVER heard of such a situation. Maybe it exists? If so, I would like to see it.

Just because a tire is DOT compliant, doesn’t mean it’s the right tire for the the application.

Not for nothing guys, this is why us Lightsiders are NOT invited into the Darkside part of the forum. But....It would be so much fun.

Not invited?
I thought anyone could post in that forum? Only that's where all the darksiders assemble, no?

I am not some cheerleader for car tires on motor-sickles. Never ran one, not planning too.
All I am asking for is that someone somewhere, show me SOME evidence that insurance coverage was denied due to the type of rear tire that was installed. Because I simply think it does NOT exist. I just want the plethora of misinformation to stop.
