[QUOTE="DeSudet, post: 1237936, member: 88119"] I'm pretty sure it's that chance of failure that's stopping them from touching motorcycle tires. On a car, where you've got completely different stress profiles and 3 tires on the road should one fail, a patch isn't really a big deal. A bike with not much margin for recovering (compared to a car, at least) could make the shop liable for a lot more than many shop owners would be willing to risk. [/QUOTE]
