Heh. Yes, I know what you mean.

I don't know anything at all about tires, and I don't understand what
I've read and I have zero experience, so I should never offer advice
to anybody about anything.
TOG, OTOH, is a veritable fountain of wit and wisdom and I hope that
he will stay with all of us forever bestowing his beneficence upon us.
Thank you TOG so very much for everything you do for us. I don't know
what we would do without you.

Oh dear. Rattle alert. OK, genius. Tell us why fitting car tyres to
motorcycles is a good idea and I'll tell you precisely why it *isn't*.

Well, I sure don't know the answer to that qustion, and I'm so very
very sorry that I can't help here.
I surely wish I could, but I don't know anything about any subject.
I wouldn't know a motorcycle tire from a chocolate covered donut.
I've never been anywhere or done anything in my whole life.
But TOG knows what the answer is. TOG knows everything. If he doesn't
know the answer, it's not worth knowing.
Once again, I want to thank TOG for his effulgent wisdom, on behalf of
all sentient beings who ride motorcycles and need his special kind of
help.

mention much older than your preffered poofters.
