The Triumph Rocket III is a motorcycle with an engine bigger than some mid-size cars, but in this “documentary” we get a rare look at the manufacturing process.
This explains so much about British motorcycles.

Sarah Palin to Appear on American Chopper
Turns out the hockey mom is also a motorcycle maven.
Alaska Governor Sarah Palin recently welcomed the crew from Orange County Choppers – whose custom motorcycle business is featured on TLC’s American Chopper – to Anchorage where show star Paul Teutul Sr. researched building a bike to honor Alaska’s 50-year anniversary of being a state.
“It means so much to the state of Alaska that these guys are building this bike that will honor statehood here,” Palin says in the episode, airing April 30 at 9 p.m.
Paul Sr. hangs out with the Governor in her office and talks about the Alaskan weather, snowmobiling and fishing in the summer. “I inherit whatever [husband] Todd rejects from the year before,” Palin says.
After inviting the OCC crew back for the summer months, she suggests having fun Alaska style, saying, “We’ll ride the bike to the fishing hole.”
Although initially nervous about the meeting, Paul Sr. says that he felt Palin was “a real down to earth person to talk to.”
From Alaska, the OCC crew heads to Finland in an effort to market their bikes overseas.
