We also meet the men who keep important historic machines in working order, including Phil Morris, Mike West and Ferry Brouwer of Yamaha Classic Racing Team, and see their glorious motorcycles up close.

There are contributions from Steve Parrish, Alex George, Mick Grant and archive footage of these icons in action. As a bonus on the second disc we have extended interviews with George, Ago, Croz, King Kenny, Grant and Parrish.
