Only the first episode.
Lemme guess.  Nortons?

yup all nortons

No it wasnt ... and it actually showed a picture of a 69 CB750. It did center around British bikes (Triumph, Matchless, BSA, Tritons, Royal Enfields), but the show was about beginnings of Rockers (and even touched on Mods) and the "Cafe Racer" in London of early 60s, and how it has impacted the world today, to include current Sportbikes.

To me ... it looked like a long commercial for Mike Seate's magazine, http://www.caferacermag.com/ ... which has a video from the show at the bottom of the page.

is it going to be on regular discovery? what channel number is discovery hd on directv? i dont have the hd package.

[bucky katt]

Doesn't matter, cafe racer magazine is pretty crappy. Tons of grammatical, punctual, and spelling errors. Not to mention they talk up old bike barn and advertise for him. Load of crap.

thats the hell of running a magazine, you have to talk up your paying advertisers.

i thought the same thing when fiirst reading it , it also seemed to me that it was aimed more tword people that don't know much about the scene or bikes ,  like when talking about a priticular bike , the way even the simplest things were over-explained ,and complex details were usaully skipped .... in all fairness though ... i'm talking about the first 6 issuies , they just need to grow as a magizine

hell i only got the subsciption cuz my bike was in the 1st issue

It appears Mike got discovery to make his book (not magazine) into a TV series. Its no where near as good as I would have liked it to been but it didnt make the scene look bad either so its all good. I will let the series get further before I lay final judgment.

What bothered me the most about the show was mike seats mustache... it doesnt look to be shaven evenly. The whole show I was like WTF..

[Flying J]

How many episodes are they gonna make. It seems like they ran through the history of cafe racers and then ran out of stuff. To fill the time they talked about how cafe racers were responsible for the sport bike movement. Unless they get into more of the types of bikes and what makes each one special i think it might be a 1 series show.

[Spikeybike]

they are makin another one .... and i got interviewed for it at mods and rockers
