i did see that video before also a while ago. i too dont like the show much. one day when i was watching, my wife commented on how stupid the show had seemed.
as for the crotch rocket, they have been called that since the day of the interceptor. at least here in the s.f. bay area. it wasnt called because of the wheelies but as what tstone said, the way you sit on the bike and obviously how fast they go.
softail, as far as the "jap crap" term, they were mentioning how honda and toyota are now becoming american companies. this i because how they employ thousands of amercans here in the u.s. since they have manufacturing plants here. im all about buying american and god knows that ive fought for my country and even work to protect everyones rights here in the us but its not as simple as just not buying a non ameican brand. american and foreign countries have products so intertwined, we would not be able to just "buy amercan" anymore. take for instance the sr 71 blackbird. you would figure that you couldnt get more american that that. well, the titanium metal that they got to build it didnt come from america. we had to buy it from hostile countries.
