, but its a bit Mrs Browns boys humour.

That’s supposed to be funny ?

Mrs Browns boys is supposed to be funny, yes.

Supposed to be, but it's awful, I like the 44 teeth stuff, it's like cheap TopGear but for bikes.

[Ho Lee Kau]

These guys are funny. :-)

The Swiss fine was a bit stupid, but ste happens.

Their latest review of 2019 S1000RR is going to be THE best review of that bike, I am looking forward to their dry test run.

[Ho Lee Kau]

I would like them to do a comparison of the new S1000RR and the GSXR1000R.

They said GSXR1000 was second tier, and I agree with them, but they chose that bike over previous S1000RR.

Would be curious to hear their opinion on how they compare.

I was never a fan of BVG but I do like Fagan and I do like alot of 44T content the BBB certainly the Italia was good with the exception of the moaning about the heavyness of the fine, whether or not I agree with the fine is moot, I just felt if your going to any country do your homework and don't go to other countries, flout their laws (quite a bit) then cry and moan like a bh when you see caught.

As Vince Vega would have said: "they should have fking better known better".
They've been to Switzerland many a time, speeding in/after tunnels - not smart.
Also, the bikers warn other bikers if there is a camera/police check.
Anyway, I found it hilarious when BVG tried to tell the cop that he thought that mountain road was unrestricted speed.

Those Jizz Machine stickers are brilliant idea, I'm gonna get me some. :-)

be sure to put it next to your 'built no bought' and 'if your licence is in doubt take a helicopter flat out' sticker.

Right above the neverbeen one, adjacent to the shopping list of parts not on the bike.

Nailed it.

Absolutely love it! I love The Grand Tour and Top Gear though so this is my type of humour / entertainment.

I'm hoping a TV Channel will give them a programme, like Dave for example. We need more bikes on TV and this is the type of programme that would appeal to people who aren't avid bike fans but just watch for the entertainment (much like TG & TGT).

If you want serious stuff theres hundreds of videos on YouTube, the times we live in are great for that but if you want a laugh this is ideal.

[Zakalwe]

I quite like the Bill Bailey one, and the David Williams one’s channel is alright in small doses. They’re a pretty good double act imo

[tjlazer]

I love their stuff and even if this is pretty ridiculous they do actually do this stuff and he specifically called out the support van thing in this episode as they are carrying everything themselves. The trip to the ring with the band kit is utterly hilarious and the enthusiasm is fantastic. You have to be pretty dull to slate these guys for trying to do something different, producing content about riding that you don't actually have to ride to enjoy. My wife thinks I'm worryingly similar to BvG tho so perhaps I'm biased.

Episode 2 up!

[V1nce Fox]

just watched it. surprised how much st the hornet is giving them.

I've always liked the 44 Teeth stuff but the bickering in the latest episodes has made it unwatchable

Yep, there seems to be very little other content.

I now see why cars/bikes are normally tested for reliability before doing filmed road trips. The odd minor niggle (or staged breakdown) gives opportunity for some 'bantz', but constant problems mean they can't film anything else.

[RemyMartin81D]

They also seem genuinely to dislike each other at the end piece to camera so amazing looks between the two.

[Krikkit]

There's nothing like breaking down, in the cold, with a stty bike, no tools, and a tight schedule to meet to induce a bit of handbags.

[Bungleaio]

I really enjoy the 44T videos. It's nice when James from JHS racing makes an appearance too, this is quite a good video showing his skills https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9JiXv543rE

[CrankyCraig]

I really enjoy the 44teeth videos for the most part, but the BBB are a bit much for me. Personally, I think it's their videos which features less rivalry/banter and more camaraderie that are the stronger, and distinguishes it from the likes of the grand tour. All the "mine is better than yours" BS should remain there. The adventures they have where they support one another is more akin to my experience of biking, and therefore more relate-able. Go somewhere together you perhaps wouldn't otherwise go alone, experience and overcome the adversity, and laugh about it afterwards over a pint.

While I'd love them to become more successful and produce more content, my hope is they continue to do it through Youtube, producing content that they want to, and not that of some corporate TV station. I much prefer the rawness of these kinds of videos, over a polished, TV friendly version, condensed to 20-40 mins, complete with 10-20mins of adverts

Keep reading this thread title as budget bukake!!!!

Am always dissapointed when I open it.

[ChocolateFrog]

Quite like it as it's decent bike content.

Glad I'm not the only one who gets a bit irritated with the bickering and the incredulity when BVG got the Swiss fine was hard to swallow but other than that it's pretty good.
