Twist The Throttle

[MrMike]

Any1 catch this new show on Discovery Turbo Max?

Its on monday evenings but i caught a repeat of it yesterday, pretty interesting.
Last episode was about Honda how the company started and its background.

Doesnt so much as go on about current bikes and models more so the history of the company itself

[Big_Nath]

Yep, it's on IQ demand. Great show. But for some reason I can't series link it to record for Monday nights. Bit of a piss off

[Xuaxace]

I can't season pass it either . The honda one was good, I had seen parts of it on the net before, Next one is the ducati one I think (tomorrow)

[ApatheticEnd]

Yeah, this new channel is a WIN. If it weren't for 20 hours a day of American Chopper and biker Build Off it would be fully awesome.

The Honda doco was really good. You can tell it's not produced by bike people but whatever.

I think thats the point tho, its not a bike show but more so a history doco. Just so happens the subject is motor bike companies

Just watched it on IQ Demand. Had no worries series linking it, just found next Monday's episode and linked it there.

Not a bad doco really, pretty well balanced, a bit much cheesy music, but hell, 8 weeks of motorcycling history isn't to be sneezed at. Wondering what else we will get, big 4 Japanese, Harley, Triumph, Ducati ????

Too much Sunday wine, couldn't series link at all either, ah well.

[Lynx_250]

woot bout to start

[MrMike]

didnt think to much of tonight episode, just didnt seem to go into the history of the company as much as they did with the honda episode last week.
Seemed to sped more time doing panning shots of ducatis riding thru the hills and saying "race bred"

[footer]

I find it funny/irronic that Duc started off as a electronics company.

[ageo]

yeah i thought that too, if it wasn't for Hitler we could all be using Ducati iPods

Wish I had a dollar for evertime they mentioned the word "passion" as well .I'd be able to buy the 1198 Bayliss special

And people wonder why I call them the johnny come lately failed whitegood manufacture. Ducati's electrical problems of yore had more to do with trying to reduce production costs rather than not knowing what they were doing.
