I think that's next week Sam. It says week two.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

Just watched the show Sam.  Unfortunately I think you were left on the cutting room floor. :(
I was looking forward to seeing the interview...
Was cool seeing Larry and Rickey ride wrench on the cb, but Samauto would have been better.

I enjoyed watching them struggle getting the motor out of the cut frame. Kind of reminded me of monkeys at the zoo trying to get the apple out if the tube.

I think the current season is better than the last one, and they seem to be playing the episodes in twos, which is awesome!  Shame you guys were left out of the final edit.

Yes, this season appears to better than last, however it's still 16 minutes of show and 14 minutes of commercials!  >:(

Ok, so I don't live for TV or the SOHC4 forum , but I watched the show,  and I did not like all the guys using the f-bomb every other word to make them selves look cool, and another thing , that bike was not as fast as they made it look in the show, like I said in my post, the engine Mike built for me is only an 836 not a cobra or a 936 if that is even real. I thought an RC Cobra was a 1000. Anyway the show is interesting  and getting better but it is also sad, because they made that guy look like an A-hole.  If you ever get the chance to present your self in public , have some class and don't forget your manners.

I thought about that...something about starting a motor for the first time, and drag racing it in the same day seemed a little strange, then I saw how early he was shifting...

Thought that the 140hp claim was funny....
and the powder coated bent norton.....

Had a good laugh at both of those!

Yeah, and this guy is supposed be some kinda "cafe expert"? ::)

Also, the mono shock conversion was interesting but as usual they give lots of time to the chopping but little to the actual fabbing.

No he is a moron.  and tries to act like more of one because he thinks its good TV
Really wish he would talk more about what he used to say when he was the chopper guy.....didnt have alot of nice things to say about this side of the hobby

Funny is that i know of some of the bikes the show passed on to do crap like that.

The show is better then it was but its still far from good.
Mostly i see it as an informercial for DCC.

I wish that less of what they said was wrong and they put the time into getting facts right and educating people.
But its just TV
