eneyone ever put nonpopabel tiers or tubes on there motorized bike?

I like HD thorn proof tubes and good tire liners, the liner goes between the inside of the tire and tube.
Costs about $30 a wheel, but worth it to replace the paper thin tubes and thin cheap tires that come with most low cost bikes.
I call it bullet-proofing and it works good ;-}

one can cut sidewalls off an old tire to make liners

I used to use thick tubes and tires on my dirtbikes but it causes so much wheel inertia and "dead" ride I prefer not. Proper pressure and a quality lightweight tube will last a long time.

Rag Joints are made from old tire sidewalls, I have no clue no clue how you can get a straight 2" wide ~4' continuous piece out of it.
Now sure you can cut an old tube and wrap it around the new tube but it's still just tube material.

Anyway, I use liners like these.

Tough stuff that stops most anything.

sorry to be unclear, cut the sidewalls off an old bike tire and use just the tread part as liner
