Need You Bikers again
Give me some names of the most influential people in the motorcycle/dirtbike world, BESIDES Indian Larry and The Tuttle Family.
Must be influencer in the US.
Any help would be great. Thanks!

She didn't specifically mention it, but I am assuming that Liz is looking for current influences more than past influences.

Ben Spies, Colin Edwards, Nicky Haden all compete in the MotoGP Circuit & this guy Chip Yates who has the first electric bike competing in the AMA Super Bike series. For stunters you have Nick Brocha, Jason Britton, Ernie Vigil & Jessica Main. Those are the few Americans that pop into my head that are pretty big name.

Yes, definitely looking for current influencers besides the guys who are on TV with their own shows (like besides Jessie James, Paul Tuttle Sr, Etc.) Alex's list is more like what I need, the very current heavy hitters.

Jason Britton did have his own show on Speed "Two Wheel Tuners" super early on Saturday mornings. I know before I left there was a new season, not sure if its still on. I haven't watched TV in over a year now.

Yeah, I've actually watched a few episodes of that. And all I can remember is some weird foreign guy Jason was interviewing, saying, "I stunt when I stunt. I stunt in the street, I stunt in the road. I like to stunt."
I think we laughed about that for days.
