I'm more interested in the Firstgear prototype suit he raved about.
I think he's smart enough not to put a car tire on a motorcycle.

I ran a car tire for awhile..he was only going 100 mph or so--it sure would have lasted a lot longer--I found transitioning to extreme cornering not my cup of tea--if he was just running the banking I think it wouldn't be an issue--I am too old to find out!

Yep, if he was dark side he would have made 24 hours and could have probably rode the bike home afterwards.

That many miles and even with changing tires multiple times went that far. You'd need a Kardashian sized butt to cushion you for that ride.

Like I said above: He's not that stupid.
