I speak american (which is decidedly NOT engliss) don and several
others also do not speak english OR american they speak
canadian...it's like the difference between spanish and mexican. 8^)

DAS Right....but I fail to see the relationship between English
Gram/Lit. and Scooters/M-cycle tyres....
Ever wonder why *V-Groove* M/cycle tyres are not found on
cars......right, they cost too much for cars, and car tyres, are not as
susceptibly affected by rocks between the threads, like M/Cycles are.

C'mon. There's a great reason to use car tires on a bike - you don't
need a sidestand any more.

It could be, my ride has a side stand ignition cut-off *ignition
linked side stand switch* that is quite inconvenient at times, then lifting
some 500lbs becomes a bit of a trip after a while.
I done it 1,000 times, for checking/changing the oil, and any other
maintenance, were the back wheel is required to not touch the ground when
revving of the CVT is required......
The bike seems to get heavier all the time, and a lot ppl with
Yamaha Majesties 2003-->2010 seem to bitch about it a lot and seek a
disabler/bypass to the ignition linked side stand switch.
The ignition linked side stand is a bit of an inconvenience, so not
using the side stand and not having to use the center stand seems like a
good idea in theory.
