Why do this to a Honda?

Or any bike for that matter??

Tires

I remember a thread on this subject last year, but I've never seen a pic like this one from Spider's gallery.

Obviously because to apply the blue ones to the ground would be bad

I dunno, Chain. Reds are hard to match. If it isn't the same shade, it could really clash!

its not like a retread you see on a big truck. These are air craft quality retreads. Suppose to be really good as far as a retread goes.

I saw orange ones on a custom orange painted 900rr one time. the bike did look good but I only saw it while riding and didn't get a really good look.
