Re: Super Bikes!!

I knew that was gonna happen. Sorry, but I though it looked too much like Biker Boyz...but it does have room to improve!

I didn't really like the fact that they were showing all the stunting from the streets (ok, let the flaming begin); I thought it was going to be more from competition and maybe some interviews with the pro riders or up and comings. Jason should hang with guys like the Starboyz, Darious, and Legion.

Re: Super Bikes!!

I will say this "The show is not gonna make everyone happy" thats a given. But i think this will probably be the closest to the world of sportbikes that any network will put out for a while because networks are like that. The show will be following me to Oklahoma for a pretty big show and it will showcase exactly what we do as Professionals. Bottom line is there is hope and i believe that the show is only gonna get better with time but it is not strictly based on stunt riding as much as i would like it to be but its definately a start. I hope you guys continue to watch and if you have comments good or bad email speed to let them know what you would like to see more of or less of.

Thanks to those who support

Actually, I am sure some of them would definatly want to! Especially to show off in front of the cameras.

I wanted to say more in my last post, but I didn't get a chance (wife was messing with me), so here is my 3 cents.

I was hoping that this show would be more like the magazine Super Streetbike. They show the stunts, but in competition and in controlled areas. I believe that is what is going to take this sport to the mainstream. When the general public sees some guys tearing it up on the streets, it makes all sport riders look bad, and that brings the cops down on us. I know, I know...fuggem all and all that BS; but if you want the sport to grow it will have to be accepted by a wider audience. I know that crews like OM, Legion, Starboyz and many others still ride streets, but I would hope that on the camera, they would take it to an off street spot to show off to help promote the sport.

Here's reality guys, cruisers are the vast majority of motorcycles, sportbikes are a much smaller chunk of it. Amongst sportbikes, a very small percentage are stunt riders. I believe that in order to broaden the viewer base, the show will have to expand. I know the "underground" portion of sportriding is entertaining, but it is going to turn a lot of people off of the show. I would like to see some legit stunting in the form of competitions and such.

That's not all I wanted to say last night, but dammit it's too damn early here and I can't think! I will continue to watch the show, mostly cuz I love stunts, but also because I hope it will improve with time. Hopefully the people that are giving feedback on Speed's site are giving constructive criticizm, instead of just bittchin about it.

Re: Super Bikes!!

I didn't like the show. Sorry. I am not a stunter just a regular guy who rides a street bike. I think it put a bad light on the already fragile relationship that we have with the public in general. In the beginning of the show there was a disclaimer to not to try this stuff and stunts performed on a cloed course, except that the hosts were performing stunts in the street which is bad juju. Again gives us a bad rap.

Re: Super Bikes!!

Hey we all ride bikes. They took the racers show(TWT) off that I am sure you stunterz were complain' about but then they put this reckless stuff on? Is this the kinda thing that stunters want to be portrayed as? Reckless people that have no regard for the law? I know you guys do have competitions and they are a blast to watch. What I wonder is why don't racers and stunters have a get together were we both have a competition at the track racers race at. Three things, it'll introduce the racers to stunting, draw bigger crowds, and take the stunting off the street and on the track. Just an idea, afterall we all are brothas on two wheels. (well except for you wheelie freaks)

The same reason that everytime a cop bashes on a stunter, a bunch of loud mouths go to the cop forums to start crap. Plain and simple, he came here to bash...give it time, he will either convert (doubt it), or he will leave...

I have only read the first page on the Speed Forums, but I am getting the idea they really don't like it!! I might have to sign up there just to give some good ideas!!!

Actually, I am sure that a bunch of people from here already went there to start crap, so I might have to lay low for a bit...

Re: Super Bikes!!

Hey I'm a racer and a competitor like many of you. I think a lot of people hide behind the computer screen when they are bashing you but when you meet them in person its an entirely different matter. I guess I believe that there are other real people behind these computer names and hell we may one day meet. I am racing at Summit Point Raceway this weekend if any of you stunters want to come out and meet the racers. Eventhough we can be ****s and call each other names (squid, etc.) when you really meet us in person we're actually no different from each. We lean the bikes sideways, you lean them back. Take it easy. BTW I got mad stunter skills too yo. :YEAH Check out the stoppie I got going.
