I doubt it, if thee's no fightin there's no show
Shame to see a family torn up so some dickweed producer can make a buck

of course it's only TV so why would we think it's got anything to do with real life, just an act , notthing to see here folks .. keep it moving... nothing to see here
Interesting... I wonder how much is TV induced.

prob most of it.
It's sorta like how some people online act themselves (like they do in real life), and others try to come off as something else.
I came online in 98, and that is one thing that has remained constant.

always gonna have yer players on tv or online

i can't stand the gimmicky bikes they build. kind of like "pimp my ride" for motorcycles. it looks alright until they put a fishtank in the back seat.

i've seen a few of their production bikes and they're alright...nothing to really write home about.

my local indy builds nicer bikes, all one off stuff.

it makes me laugh when people pop wood for production choppers. two pulled up to the gym last week and it's all anyone can talk about.

they were nice bikes, looked good, sounded great, and the guys were cool enough but if i had 30 or 40 or 50 grand to plop on a bike, i'm gonna build something myself to my specs and make sure no one can pull up next to me on the same thing. and i'll probably come in way under budget.
