watched the first two eps.. The official website is here: http://www.hondattlegends.com/
The team is:

John McGuinness is a rider of vast experience, 19-times TT-winner and six times NW200 victor, John is not only a legend on road racing circuits, he can also count on a host of short circuit and other international successes, including winning the British 250 Championship in 1999.

Simon Andrews began his racing career on this 16th birthday in 1999, securing pole position and second place in his first race in the New Era Club Championship. He went on to compete in several British Supersport Championship “shoot outs” for newcomers in 2000 as well as achieving a win and five podiums in the New Era Club Championships.

The third guy is Cameron Donald who, I guess, was replaced after last year (when the doco was filmed) and so wasnt on the site for 2013.

The first race is a Bol D'Or and I have to say, I was quite impressed with it. They are inspiring guys, especially Simon. Not Madmen.. family guys who love to race. Worth a watch.. especially when their crew rebuilds a bike in 15 mins.. and the crew boss says of Simon "not lookin too fresh is he..." (he cant get on or off the bike unsupported). Really good..
