SFDemo Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Hi, As a motorcyclist, I love motorcycle movies and I started watching my recorded shows last night. I think the Discovery mini-series is pretty good as entertainment, and made awesome due to the subject matter. It is kind of cool to here about the early marketing, racing and ideas that made the H-D a world wide brand. Pretty damn cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 I've watched both nights, and really enjoyed it. A very well put together show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTheAzn Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Looks cool. I watched the first episode I think, hopefully the next one is on my DVR when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndonD454 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Cool show, makes me appreciate the company a bit more.. but also wonder how they got so far away from their roots of being innovative, race-bred, go-anywhere machines. I'll watch the 3rd one tonight either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo72 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 I don't have the discovery channel. I may need to explore alternatives to check this out. I kind of miss Ass Monkey Garage too.Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some shows are just a bitch to find on secure torrent sites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricer1 Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 I watched the first two episodes, I will DVR the last tonight. I thought it was a well done series, looking forward to the ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was not signed off by Harley-Davidson. Oddly enough, Budweiser is the official partner for this mini-series, not Harley-Davidson. Having said that, I am all for this show. If it gets more people interested in two-wheels and into the market, I'm all for it. Who cares if it's a little off in the history or timeline? As long as it helps get new people into dealerships to move bikes whether it's H-D, Indian, Euro or Japanese, it's a win for all of us.

Kritz Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 The founders must be turning over in their graves seeing the 800 pound parade floats they now market.. Love the show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo72 Posted September 9, 2016 Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Assholes...I just switched from SlingTV to Playstation Vue so that I could watch this show. Always costing me $$$. Edited September 9, 2016 by Wojo72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-D is fairly dominant in the NHRA Drag Circuit http://www.harley-davidson.com/content/h-d/en_US/home/events/racing.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
