A M/C has practically no rubber in contact with the tarmac (Asphalt) and what you have you better be able to rely on. Sticking on someone elses cast of is not something I would ever consider.

Consider where a used tyre may have come from

1 a crashed bike; the forces may have done damage to the integrity of the tyre that you just cant see.

2 a track tyre; it will be shagged

I cant see why you would want to risk your life saving a few pennies.
