At first I thought the same thing. But what I got was that they were able to get manufacturer buy-in & support from quality companies all in Italy. 
Otherwise, they would have had to go to China to show the manufacturing processes. 
It was a really interesting program. Catch the replays if you missed it last night.

Just watched it, now I want new brakes! The slipper clutch was a cool idea in development, not much use for it tin the cruiser world, but for race bikes it looks pretty neat.

I think it might be a few different shows in the series. I caught part of one that was different last week. It spent a lot of time on how motorcycle boots are designed and made. It does seem a little like company promo stuff, but interesting none the less. I'll see if it's a different one next Thursday.
