Anybody been watching it? Sorry if there's been like 10 topics on this. It's really good though, just seen an RD350 on there, seemed pretty rapid. Wouldn't mind getting my bike modded like that :d

I do watch this Embarassed

Most of the bikes they do are OK but you see more of the person getting the make over than the bike itself!

The best one I saw was a a woman with a Bandit 6! Thumbs Up

I can't watch that program, the concept is really good but I just can't do it. I've seen 2 episodes and the trendy LA gimp makes me want to bang the tv up their all so annoying. Their was one guy who was having his bike done and the la gimp first time meeting him said something stupid like wow you really are a fat lazy ugly slob aint you before even speaking to the geezer. Over here he would have got lamped out faster than you can say your muvas got a penis!! 80% of the show is taking the owners to swim with dolphins and play on the swings and get their nippples waxed then they show u last 2 minutes at the end what a mess they made of his bike.

rant over Embarassed

Could be worse.

Tim weeeeeestwoood, could be hosting it. Then i would really wanna top myself. Ferreal man.

Only seen this program once, it was the one two weeks ago, when they did up some guys CBR 600. I thought it was crap.

yeah the whole makeover for the guy/gal is sheit, should have concentrated on the bike way more. And the 'trendy LA gimp' is, as you've said pushing for a good beating. But the outcome of the bike is worth watching the programme for I reckon Wink

The RD350LC was well nice BEFORE it was done up.

Now they've gone and ruined a 'classic' bike.

Problem is that they're getting a "chopper" garage to mod up a sports bike. Would've looked much nicer getting resprayed stock but adding braid brake lines, USD forks, wavy disks etc and taking the engine apart and giving it a massive clean and polish.

But no, leave the fucked motor alone and whack some aftermarket fairings and some paint on.

Good concept, shit show.

hmm....

make a twat of myself on t.v on the one hand

free holiday, and tricked up bike on the other

on balance, I think i'd rather leave it, and try my luck on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

the premise is alright - trinney and sussanah for bikers - but the 'style guru' guy is far, far too much of a twat for me to watch it.

one guy even calls him a bell-end. and well deserved.

he does indeed need introducing to Mr Punchy and his friends, lifty, holdy and drowny.

Yeah, the "style guru" is a real PITA...
but I like the show, if only to see the final result with the bike
