Both series have been shown in the US last year and E4 normally shows them in the September of the year they're shown in the US.

I'd mentioned previously about maybe joining Netflix but, apparently, they're not showing them either, presumably because E4 still has the rights.
I have been watching American Chopper ( don't know why their bikes are crap although some of the workmanship is clever ) They are now on repeats of repeats and back to the original feuding. Don't know how they have finished up in 2021.

There's a really useful site for finding where content is streaming:

https://www.jus****ch.com/uk

It'll tell you which programmes are available on the various platforms, and the cost if relevant. Not 100%, but works most of the time.

Trying to find a second hand GSXR K3 fairing that isn't fubar.
It might be easier to find a hen with teeth.

The ones that are intact - unlike mine - still show signs of road rash.
Mine disintegrated on impact.

going naked is not as cheep as you might think. not just a case of sticking a headlight on.

Yeah, I do. I just really dislike Insurance companies after the T Bone incident.
I'd never see it again once they take it for inspection. They'd write the bike off for a few bits of plastic.

I thought it was mandatory to offer you a buy-back in the case of a write off?
