You say you have boatloads of cash, just help a brother out and send him a new pilot power, maybe a 200.(imoXu @ May 11 2007,19:28) assuming that your tires will wear out eventually I stand by my comment

I plugged my last nail and rode on it for another 500 miles. Told myself to keep it under 80, although 105 or 110 was what really happened.(Turbo-Torch @ May 11 2007,19:50) Plugs and patches properly installed will never lose air or fall out, it's vulcanized in. That's NOT the point.
The faster a tire spins the more it expands. A tire spinning at 150 mph that has a damaged cord and webbing is a disaster waiting to happen. There's a reason why a tire loses it's speed rating and should never be taken over 80 mph when properly patched from the inside.
A person claiming to have done 180 mph on a plugged tire with no problems doesn't mean it's all A'Ok to do. I do things everyday at work that OSHA would roast my ass over, I don't go around telling people it's safe to do those things because I've done it and survived.
There's enough bad things stacked against you while doing 150+ mph, you don't need to add a grenading tire to that list. Why risk ending your life over a measly $140 tire? Of course you could keep it around 80 mph but that sort of defeats the purpose of owning a Busa.
I put Corvette Clocks (yeah, with Neon) and use them for gifts and prizes at our Vette Club and Rally Show.(Vic_E55_2001 @ May 11 2007,18:43)may we see the pictures?(DaCol. @ May 11 2007,15)Good Idea, except I make clocks out of them ! Insert an Indian Motorcycle Clock (with neon light) in the hole (fits perfect if you put an inter tube around the clock to tighten up the fit) and Vola, an Unbelieveable Great Clock for your garadge.(Vic_E55_2001 @ May 11 2007,13:52) Guys posting +1 +2 +3 I have an Idea.
I`ll send you my address and gladly accept you bad tires. then I`ll post a video of happy me riding on those tires.
I`ll sign a liability waiver so you would not worry of me suingyou.
I NEVER waist anything
what would you do with second tire? third?
More clocks?
