Great show from Discovery Channel
It's called Twist the Throttle, and they do a special on a different manufacturer each week.

Awesome, and in HD!

it's not a bad show, and I like that they talk a bit about the history of each company. but... every time he says "... a twist of the throttle" just the way he says it make me laugh

effing hate when he repeatedly says "with a twist of the throttle" about 50 times an episode. Other than that it is a pretty cool show.

Between the cameras and the commentators, it was entertaining watching last night. For some reason they had focused in on a shopping cart and was making comments about it...as one guy went around a corner, out of the blue, one of the commentators was: hey, I've crashed there before.

It has struck me, at least with the ones I've watched so far (BMW, Suzuki), that they seem a lot like infomercials.
