Did any of you catch the toys for boys show last night on the history channel? It contained alot of history on motorcycling dating back to 1903 focusing on Harleys, Brit bikes, Honda and Indians. Some really interesting stuff, but quess what? About 3/4s through the show they started to talk about the more modern bikes.

This was the first first sentence out of their mouths. "the fuel is in the frame, the oil in the swing arm and the BUELL is in your face!" followed by two Firebolts ripping it up in the twistys.

The Hitler uh I mean History Channel played something other than WWII shows or Band of Brothers?

Just joking but they do play a lot of that stuff. I was wanting to see the motorcycle show but I had much homework to do when it was on.

Don't worry it will be on again. Last nights showing was actually about the third time this year. My kid gets mad cause I watch it every time! Wouldn't mind hearing one of those "Britten" bikes running. Any one else notice that that bike was referred to as A V-TWIN, but had two pipes running out of each cylinder. Any one have specs on this bike?
