| Why do I Darkside?
It isn’t because I like to hide
No I am not snide, but I don’t like to abide
Really I Darkside, because I like to ride
The other side will try to shanghai and lie that you’re going to be broadsided on the roadside, while joyriding down the seaside, and turned into rawhide pie
and no I haven’t died They will cry that isn’t properly applied nor has it complied, but really they like to misguide the tide with diatribe from the backside. You can’t go around the hillside or avoid colliding a landslide without being denied a slide into the curbside. We say why do you decry the Darkside if you never tried to ply your Levi’s on a joyride around the stateside? On the upside by the hearthside, we can be allied, because we take pride and we like to ride.

Land O Lakes, FL | I would love to take someone's Vision for a ride that's on the Darkside to see if I would like it or not. I've been considering it but I'm such a handling fanatic that even the slightest thing that tweaks the handling off annoys me. |

DARKSIDE QUAD
I heard about this darkside
from squicci on this board.
And now I am a ridin'
With the Darkside Hoarde.
We be riding on the freeway,
the super slab they say;
And lovin' every minute
of the Darkside ridin day.
But then it came to happen
that my fine car tire blew,
and I went into the pavement
my body all askew.
Now I an a quad,
and cannot stoke my willy;
But hey, I went darkside!
so cummin seems so silly~
There is one thing that really sucks,
and really frosts my face....
Is Insurance man denied me.
And said "You got no case!"
So I called me up a lawyer
He said sure let's sue 'em now,
He told me I could be holden,
Half the golden cow!
But seems my CT was not kosher.
It never was ok;
So now I live on medicaid,
And whatever welfare pay.
My lawyer said we didn't win,
Didn't get a buck.
Said the jury was a-laughin'
So I really am f@ck......ed.

skwee-ah-chi? Funny, but really?
A quad you may be, but your old lady may think your tongue is just dandy
On you face she likes to sit, but God help you if she has to sh**
Your lawyer does suck, or maybe he just doesn't give a f**k.
Cuz if he had half a brain, he wouldn't have left you in such pain
If to court you did lose, then why didn't welfare or medicare refuse
This story seems odd and out of sorts, are you sure you aren't just a spoilsport |

Orlando, FL | Yea, ok Stevie boy. It's all fun and games unless your the poor guy that gets the shaft. You asked for a reply and I gave you one. Now you're just being an ass. Like it or not the reality is that you are taking a risk if you run a CT without your insurance company knowing. We all take risks, and if this one doesn't bother you, fine. But it seems to bother a biker that was on a Gold Wing in FL that is a quad. So I won't say anymore on this subject. I'm tired of taking to people that refuse to acknowledge the POSSIBLE risk. Run a CT. Take a Risk. It's your ass not mine.
Oh, and as for you're cute little sign sign-off. There's a ton of people that break and don't heal. They lay in bed for the rest of their lives unable to move, fed with a tube. Or did that data elude you too?

Ok so you want to get all serious and take this personal then here you go.
Before I installed the car tire I did called my insurance company, and I quote "the tire must adhear to DOT regulations, and since it does, then everything is covered". I then called the DMV, and reviewed the US DOT regulations. The DMV stated the same thing as my agent did, and I have been unable to find regualtions limiting the use of a car tire on a motorcycle in the US DOT regulations.
My little sign off is about the fucken 8 months I spent in a wheel chair, and the fucken fact that I didn't fucken give up, and got back on a bike. I still have limited mobility and a steel rod in my leg. So don't fucken tell me I have no fucken idea what it is like, because I have a real fucken good idea of what it is like to be fucked up by a crash. And I had the crash on a bike with a motherfucken motorcycle tire on it!

Wow, such language~ And why are you taking this personally? A little touchy are we? And just an FYI. An unrecorded, non-confirmed phone call don't mean #$%@#$ in a court room. If it ain't in writing, well, it just ain't!

What lit my fire isn't the debate about the legalities, but the way you came off was implying that I didn't care if people got hurt. When nothing is further from the truth, and considering what I lived through I can only feel more for people who crash their bikes. My signature is to let people now that you can get through it, and get back to living. So yes I take that personally.

Peru, IN | Chill out, Francis. (Frances? Francas?)
Progressive is very specific in their policy regarding tires. It only has to be DOT approved. Period. I called them to confirm this (and since I'm a naturally paranoid person, I recorded the time/date of the phone call and the person I spoke with as well as the actual call). They confirmed that they don't care as long as the policy is followed to the letter. I reminded them that the only thing policy stated was that the tire(s) had to be DOT approved and that I was planning to put a CAR TIRE on the back of my MOTORCYCLE. The nice lady asked if the tire was DOT approved. I said it would be and she said, "Then it will be fine.". The "will the insurance company pay if you're darksided" debate has been going on for years. I'd like someone to show me concrete proof (not my brothers best friends cousins ex room mates sister said) that any insurance claim was denied based solely on the fact that there was a car tire on the back of the bike.
Now I forget the original question. STOP FIGHTING CHILDREN OR I WILL SEND YOU TO YOUR ROOMS WITHOUT SUPPER! |

New Bohemia, VA | Why do I rightside?
Not because of pride
Or to gain your chide
Or to know I died
No, I like the right tire
I do not slip, stumble or expire
or scrap, tap or catch on fire
I like the ride that I aspire
I ride in record time
and can even stop on a dime
I can ride on that I climb
but don't need to chime
If you have trouble with right
I am dismayed at your fight
Not that you've seen the light
maybe it is from your fright |

Orlando, FL | Oh Steve Steve Steve. I never implied you don't care about others. You can take all this as personally as you wish. But once you put it out there anything is fair game. Take it however you want. You're not the only person that has been in a bike wreck. I was in the hospital for 8 weeks, had 7 surgery's and had rehab for a year. All at the age of 17. But who cares! I don't advertise it or talk about it. I just ride.
But I recognize that people can have injuries that leave them bedridden for life. I work in healthcare and see many who never get back. Many people will never heal. Many will heal but will never be able to get back on. And loss of insurance coverage could mean the difference between poverty survival and dignity.
So again, no need to take it personally. You wanna ride Darkside, go for it. You don't need anyone's permission. And ya don't need to start a thread a forum to try to convince others to go darkside. Just enjoy your ride.
But you started a thread and asked us to chide in and respond with prose. When I did, you got all upset and took it personally.
Pulll-eze, don't put a target on your back, taunt me to shoot and then whine when I do.
