    Re: Ice tires on my SV

    More crash damage to repair in the off season?

    Seating position too far back to have any real control of big slides?

    Tires will cost you a fortune to make?

    The bike weighs almost 400 lbs?

    Shall I go on?

    You need a dirtbike anyway. Just get one and plan for some Icey tires too.

    Re: Ice tires on my SV

    cost/run time doesn't seem like a good ratio...

    so you'll spend a couple hundo setting up tires, you have to wrap 'em and truck the bike to a frozen lake to ride it...why not just pull a randyo, get a snow tire for the rear, and do street rides in the snow?

    'cause it's not the same game. Why road race, it's far cheaper to fire up Excite Bike on an NES?
