There is much better programming that SpeedTV can air. The show "Superbikes" is nowhere near the class that 2WT is, and is not indicative of true motorcycling enthusiasts. "Superbikes" is simply a "Lowest Common Denominator" attempt, at discovering an audience. It's garbage compared to 2Wheel Tuesday.
I support this petition because of your program's substantially inaccurate and low-life portrayal of responsible sportbike owners and riders. Please change the content of your show to reflect responsible ownership and riding or remove it from your network programming.
This show absolutely undermines any and all attempts to bring the safe aspect of road riding/racing to the forefront. Motorcycling IS NOT about what this show portrays and the idea that a network would publicize such illegal behavior is totally unprofessional.
I support this peition because this show puts a bad light on the sportbike community. Not all of us stunt in traffic or make a nuisance of ourselve in traffic. We are not a fight club either.
the show is a pathetic, cheap, and sensationalistic look at the "bottom of the barrel" in our sport. Please bring back coverage of racing and the personalities behind them.
because the show focuses on an irresponsible minority and portrays it as common. Blaming sportbikes for accidents is like blaming trailer-parks for tornadoes. Ridiculous.
What a joke of show..anyone who truly supports the sport of sport bike riding is sick to their stomach trying to watch this show. What an insult to all of the sportbike riding community.
Skateboarders on Superbikes is doing nothing good for otherwise a very healthy community of Sportbike owners, all you are doing is promoting illegal street stunting...grow up for gods sake, your captive audience has an IQ of a Goldfish.
bring back 2 wheel tuesday. the weekly racing recap was great. i watched 2wt everyweek, i will not watch superbikes ever again, the premiere was more than enough.
this show is an incredibly bad representation of the sport bike community. We have a bad enough time with predjudice from the general public, police, etc. This kind of program does NOTHING for our community, in a positve way.
Put something else besides maham on television for a change. How about some real club race footage from all over. KEEP IT ON THE TRACK. iF WE WANT TO SEE IDIOTS WE WOULD BUY THE STUNTER VIDEOS
it will only serve to highlight the ignorant behavior already seen on the streets by irresponsible motorcycle riders. How about a show on responsible club racers that actually take their need for speed to the proper venues.
. Our group owns sportbikes. We go to track days. We go around the country to ride curvy roads. We enjoy watching professional stunting in an arena or other non-public-road venue. We all agree this Stooperbike show does nothing except put sportbikes in a negative light.
There's a bad egg in every bunch. This program seems to focus only on the bad eggs.
SPEED TV is now Life Magazine from the Hollister era.
Please get your ASSCAR and NASCRAP folks out of the productioon studio, and get some real (non-felon) bikers on there!
because it not like the majority of the bike community. it is not how most of us live. the show does not help our immage, and acutally does the exact opposite.
the amount of safe responsible riders outweights the illegal stunters that give us a bad name, and Speed will do the same with this show as it is. Plus Greg White rules!
because this show is really a stab in the back to all the true riders out there who go through each day trying to get rid of this horrible stereotype that this program is displaying to the whole nation.
The new show Super bikes, encourages bad behavior and will no doubt lead some people to go out and exhibit the same bad, irresponsible actions, endangering their lives and those of others. This puts our whole sport in a bad light. Racing and stunt riding should be done in a controlled environment. BRING BACK TWO WHEEL TUESDAY!!.
This show is not what are lifestyle is about. This about the most retarded thing I have ever seem becides biker boys and touque. How about you get some quality riders on the show. How about you find out what the people really want. Lie show that helps with riding skills. How about suspension setup segment. then a tire comparo following week. I mean this stuff in not rocket science here. I want Dave back. Dave is the man.
I support this petition because irresponsibility isn't what sport bikeriding is about. Educate the up and comming riders. Not set them up to be victims. Insurace rates are already high enough...
We dont see you folks exposing the negative side of nascar. So why do this to the sport bike community??
Speed Channel seems to do everything they can to dilute or negatively impact the 'sportbike' community. Someone else should come up with another channel to bounce these ASSCAR enthusiasts back to where they came from. IDIOTS!!!
Is there really anything to say? Just watch the show. Speed has reversed all the possitive things they have done for motorcycling over the years by this one single show. The question is, what to do next if they continue to show the worst of motorcycling in an effort to profit by it.
because I was looking forward to a great show, however, this is a let down and incredibly irresponsible of SPEED. Are all of the producers a bunch of squids?
In todays day and age we face more problems with being accepted in the world as serious and safe riders.
For you to condone the behavior that we so strongly try to eliminate, you effectively put another nail in our coffin.
Get rid of SQUID SHOWS and get back on track with good programming.
Superbikes portrays motorcyclists as a group of irresponsible and dangerous riders. Rather, the vast majority of motorcyclists are very concerned with operating their bikes in a safe and courteous manner. Please drasically change the format of this program or replace it completely.
I deal with issues daily. I'm fighting an uphill battle and unfortuneatly more and more of a battle on the tarmac due to the way in which sportbikers are viewed by the public.
and assume from the show that the editors and producers know very little of what riding sportbikes is about. They are just trying to make a quick buck. I know let's do a show depicting that all producers and editors are really criminals that the rip off the elderly, handicapped, minorities and we all know they always cheat on their taxes and infringe on copy rights.
I support this petition because it uses bias to make a point which in reality is nothing more than nusance behaviour of a few indeviduals and shows trys to portray this as a norm. There are young kids who drive cars and make as much trouble but they are not shown in the same light. If you want to show any activity show it in a level un-biased way. Your actions are as irresponsable as the people you show.
This is not an accurate representation of our sport.
I can't imagine this show receiving support from the sportbike community, or luring many advertisers, as the viewership of this type of program is surely a low end consumer and not long for this earth due to the activities such viewerships pursue. The content of this show is simply ridiculous.
What in Gods name where you people thinking? Super Bikes are not Stupid/ Stunting Bikes! Please Remove this content from your show. We have been fighting to get people like that off the street. Then you go and show them doing it on public roads.
Horrible show. Shows the smallest segment and the worst citizens of the sportbike community. While you did us a service getting Greg White unprofessional lame interviews off the air, you have hurt the image of all sportbikers with the tired retread feature crap about stunters and S. Lyons and his streetfighters in S.F. Drop the show, drop the deplorable image you are irresponsibly portraying of sportbikers.
