Default Twist the Throttle

TWIST THE THROTTLE A Unique, Insider’s Look Into Eight Of The World’s Premier Sport Motorcycle Manufacturers - News release
Presented for free in full HD on Discovery Turbo Online premiering today, March 13th, Twist The Throttle delivers an extraordinary, behind-the-scenes perspective of what makes eight of sport motorcycling’s legendary brands tick.

With over four hours of material online, Twist The Throttle takes its audience inside Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, BMW, Ducati, MV Agusta, and Bimota like never before. Multiple webisodes encapsulate each manufacturer’s remarkable tale: Starting with a trip back in time to reveal the brands’ magical histories, the films evolve to explore never-before-seen footage behind the closed doors of their manufacturing facilities, design centers, and R&D departments, offering an incredible insight into the past, present, and future of the motorcycle world.
Cry Havoc Productions, an award winning independent documentary company which has produced Speed on Two Wheels, Driving Design, and Top Marques, uses their unparalleled knowledge and passion for motorcycling to capture it all in crystal-clear, high-definition video with the kind of quality the sport deserves.

Filmed during a remarkable 36,000-mile journey to four countries on three continents, Twist The Throttle is the most comprehensive documentary series to ever showcase the inner-workings of today’s premier sport bike brands. Completing the adventure, Cry Havoc’s producers take the viewer’s trip full-circle, offering firsthand accounts of what it’s like to ride each brand’s premier sportbikes on some of the best motorcycle roads and racetracks in the world.

If you are a motorcycle enthusiast—no matter what your discipline of choice—Twist The Throttle is a must-see series.

I've always wanted to see the insides of Kawasaki. Thanks for posting that site. I had no idea that they dynoed every bike before it leaves the factory. I wonder if there is anyway to see those results.

I didn't know either. I knew they revved them to redline or something of the sort. Yeh that would be cool if you could get the original dyno. It's gotta be kept somewhere

Haha, yeh you'd be pissed if a guy kept grabbing the wrong tool (or maybe not cause you'd get a break)

I found it funny that they use a Toyota forklift
