Thanks!!

The NGE site has a short video and photos.  Too bad I dont have that channel...

Video is very cool, but had to laugh out loud when the announcer intoned that the knee of a race suit "is critically important because the rider grips the tank with his knees"?    So I guess I've got those pucks mounted wrong -- they should be on the INSIDE, to better grab the tank.

Very disappointed we've just got basic cable (which happens maybe twice a year, so...) and I won't get a look at the full thing.

It was made by the same guys that did Twist the Throttle series. Watching the Alpinestars segment felt like I was watching the Twist episode when they highlighted the company.

It was a good show overall. I'm glad I have Brembo brakes and a slipper clutch.
