"New American Thunder"

[Hammerhead Pat]

I just watched the new episode of American Thunder on Speed Channel that I taped last night. No more Michelle Smith, some hammerhead (what the??) from the Survivor show and 2 pieces of eye candy are the hosts now. Curious to see what this season has in store.

One thing about Michelle, she has around 15 years of riding experience and had a clue about bikes. Don't know about these newbies yet. I would have hoped they ditch Jay Barbarei (sp). That guy is just a walking ad for Kuryakin.

Chris, Jay Barbi is still around. He was teaching one of the girls to ride in a parking lot. At least it was on a Buell.

What night and what time is the new show on?

Yea I caught it Sat. one of the features was to teach the new co host with cleavage how to ride a bike.
What is that about?
They are still missing their target market, or maybe just like the other biker show I am not in the target market.

They may as well show more cleavage....... why not???

I watched the Show once in a while... but I didnt like that blonde anyway... and why waste time watching someone use double sided tape to stick chrome to thier bike and then call it "custom"....


I got better things to do.

Hey, I don't mind seeing a little T&A when I watch shows about bikes. I like it in fact. Just keep the metric bikes at a minimum and I will be happy.

If the target audiance is men who like Harley's and women then I guess I am the target audiance. lol.

Is the show still on Speed TV?

I didn't see it on my local listing.

[Hammerhead Pat]

Yea, it's still Speed Channel, Wed at 8, Eastern time. I think in the listing it is called Thunder.

Well don’t get me wrong, I like cleavage, like it a lot. But I have a hard time watching a motorcycle show with my wife in the house when the host is bending over to stick on some plastic chrome.
My wife just gives me that “You got to be kidding” look.
And since the show is just borderline anyway, it gets switched off.
Last season, Michelle was trying to put on some chrome while another technician was working in front of her.
She was rubbing her...... all over the back of his head.
I can’t watch that with my wife in the room.
Give me one or the other, Harleys that I can watch with my wife when she is home or cleavage when she is not.
That is what I like about American Iron, I can read the magazine and not have to hide it from my grand kids like it was some kind of porn.
