This could be interesting, a new reality show featuring a shop that builds custom Ducatis. The article also mentions a tie-in to V Force Customs, which American Choppers fans will know is Vinnie's shop.

The shop, RetroSBK, is located in Camarillo, CA, which is my hometown. Bonus!
Nice write-up! Congrats to RetroSBK on good press!!
Thanks! But SO NOT a reality show...
Its a magzine format show... Ill post when the new episodes come up.
It currently airs as 2X motorcycle TV in 104M homes.

wow i cant wait to see this! finally a show that modifies machines that dont start out stupid!
ok that was a cheap shot.... :P
Any notion of what channel this will be on? I hope I get it with my crap ass cable...
Right now, the show is seen as 2Xtreem motorcycle TV, and is availible in more than 104 million households. Working on expanding that number with our new format and expanded content.
Seen on FOx Sports, Oxygen, Altitude sports, etc etc.
D*mn!! Thanks for the link!! I was trying to think of where I heard "Kenefick's" name??
A few months back, I met one of his relatives here in Austin. Actually, it may have been his dad?
I'll have to watch the show.
Finally,a show that will make more sense.

Very interesting indeed.
I went looking for video of any kind... couldn't find it..... but did come across a very nice pic of a Streetfighter on the SBK website (and I am assuming this is the one which was worked on). [thumbsup]+11tyb

Can't wait for the show.
I'll have more than a passing interest in what you end up doing to that Streetfighter.

Can't wait! Must be awesome. I hope I can see it, in some way, in Europe. Once did something like that on TV with a prototype car. Celli
Thanks for the heads up.
I'll keep an eye out for the show. [thumbsup]
