This show panders to the lowest common denominator. The vast majority of motorcyclists are far more intelligent then apparently speed gives them credit for. I find this show highly insulting. And not necessarily in as a result of it's content, but in the manner of its delivery and in the ignorance of the on air "talent".
full heartedly, there is so much out there that is positive about sportbikes, yet this show focuses on the worse elements of the sport. Please take note that we have brains and would like a show that acknowledges this fact and does not dumb the show down to the lowest elements. Speed has missed the boat on giving viewers a great show once again.
because any show that talks about a group of riders weaving in and out of traffic on the freeway while speeding and then sitting at a restaurant and laughing about getting tickets is retarded. It just makes us all look bad when they highlight irresponsible riding and show people crossing over double yellow lines while canyon riding, or any riding for that matter. Show more track riding and focus on teaching people skills for better riding. Nobody cares about bike night. Teach me how to better ride and how to do light maintenance on my bike, AND SHOW THE AMA, MOTO GP, AND SUPERBIKE SERIES HIGHLIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least 2 Wheel Tuesday did that!!!
media attention of this type, focusing on the irresponsible minority, does nothing but make the roads more dangerous for the sportbike community. Not only does it increase the negative public perception and hostility, in encourages poor behavior and skills in those new to the sport.

because it portrays sportbikes as a problem when it is squids acting irresponsibly. It is a poor choice in programming when it does not reflect most riders. More rating garbage.
Not all Sportbike riders stunt, speed, or act stupid on their sport bikes, which this show depicts. It's creating a more negative image of us that we are trying to get rid of.
Way to go on selecting "Superbikes" as your new go-to motorcycling program for Two-Wheel-Tuesday. I've never seen a show that is as big an embarassment to the sport of motorcycling as this show is. Every single personality on that show is the reason that motorcycling (especially sport riding) is given a bad name. A bunch of hooligans performing stunts on public roads is hardly the image that I would want to present to millions of viewers, especially those who might be influenced by such behavior.
I don't know whose bright idea it was to bring such a program to your lineup, but your entire network should be ashamed, and I know for a fact that I am not the only one who feels this way. I'm sure you will get thousands of emails from avid riders who feel the same way.
Congratulations on taking your network to a new low.....
I prefer racing news and racer (pro and Amateur level) interviews. These are the people that are paving the way and making motorcycling what it is today.
I support this petition because Motorcyclists don't need a show like that to make the general public dislike riders even more than they already do. Your supporting every stereotype the public has, thanks for doing nothing positive for responsible riders.
You have no idea of what sportbike are if this is your idea of what we do as riders. This type of show is degrading to our sport and should be taken off the air or changed severly.
because this is not entertainment. Not only boring but negative. We know you can do better than this. Get rid of Greg White, update your TWT set with real chairs i.e. with backs, and change the set to a more professional setting. Let us see a more in depth coverage of a professional racer of what it takes to prepare for a race from beginning to end. Show more motorcycle racing. More about motorcycle racing who, what, where, why and how. Show some club racing. I will never watch this show again. Speed, seriously, What happened?
I support this petition because... Let's not glamorize irresponsible/unsaferidin g on public streets and This show depics sport bike riders in the fashion we have tried so hard to change!!!!
This show portrayed sportbike riders as hooligans. We already have a hard enough time fighting the image laid upon us by Hollywood and local jackasses. Why do we need a nationally televised show to further the bad blood we have with the communities we live in?
I support this petition because because it does not portray motorcycle riders in apositive light. It's not all about attitude,being stupid and showing off. Bikers areintelligent, pro-active people who will not standfor this reputation
I support the petition due to the way the sport/hobby is portraied. These type of shows should encourage good riding skills and use of equipment. SUPERbikes are the ones putting knees down in corners at a sanctioned raceway, not IDIOTS stunting and riding like an ass.
I support it based on the ignorance of the host stunting in traffic.Most stuntters and or stunt teams are past this type of ridding and now do it off the street.
Two wheel tuesday, the show this one replaces, was a far better representation of the motorcycling community. I saw the show once and will not be tuning in for a second look.
because it does not portray motorcycle riders in a positive light. It's not all about attitude, being stupid and showing off. Bikers are intelligent, pro-active people who will not stand for this reputation!
Get rid of it. Makes sportbikers look like idiots. Most of us are good hard working folks and I can't stand to see people making fools of themselves and showing this to the public is bad PR for us for sure.
I watched the show, and the general "blanket statement" the show is making is not reality. We have enough problems on the road without this negative attention.
because this show portray us as irresponsible riders. but the truth is, we are educated riders. and no matter our age. we are responsible with every aspect of safety and law. even in this forum we encourage safety and responsabilty as a most
"Super Bikes!" makes all of us that ride sport motorcycles look like arrogant, irresponsible stunt riding idiots. I am truly offended by this and would like to see either a change or the show pulled completely. Way to ruin a once great channel yet again.
