I saw the same show last night. Tuesday is my favorite night on ther Speed Channel. I get to TiVo American thunder, Corbins Ride On, Super bikes, Build or bust etc. and watch my pick of them when I get home from work. I know that a lot of the ribbing is in good fun but unfortunately there are always a few who are serious. My son rides a Triumph Speed Four Sport Bike and while shopping with him for his bike I was tempted to get a Speed Triple. What a great looking naked bike. I came to my senses when I realized my back would last about 30 minutes on that bike.
Right now my son would not go near a cruiser of any kind, Harley, Triumph, or other brand. I'll bet in a few years he will change his mind if he is still riding. I'm just glad he gets to experience the fun we all get when we ride a motorcycle, no matter what he is riding.
