So I got stuck watching Douche Canoes John & Kate + they're cute kids last night and after puting up with that crap for 2 hours, my little lady throws the remote at me(literally) and HD Theater pops up........"Twist the Throttle: Ducati"

What an awesome show about the history, the company and the manufacturing in Bologna. I thought they were smaller than they actually are. 1000+ employees and they put out 35k bikes a year. Did you know the US was responsible for what Ducati became today???

I'm hoping they do more companies.

IIRC they did Honda last week (didn't see it). Sure would like to see something like that on Buell.

They do Ducati, Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, BMW, MV Agusta, Bimota, Yamaha and Aplinstars. I think that's it. Bimota and Alpinstars share an episode.

Good program - wish there were some other brands in there (like Buell)...

Pooi. Here's an article from the Kneeslider about the show:

Maybe some Buell episode request e-mails would be in order?

I have all of TTT episodes on my HD DVR. I have seen each episode at least 3 times and never get tired of watching them. From start to finish, I am totally immersed and feel a part of each brand. Very cool show.
I do wish they would do a Buell piece as well.

I hope they come out with this series on BluRay. I love seeing the history of motorcycle mfgs.

Buell would be a great fit for this.

One thing that made me laugh watching the Duc episode is when they said "Ducati is the David going against the Golliaths of the motorcycle world."
