The series, which takes its name from the bar, chronicles the daily operations of the world 's largest biker bar, Full Throttle Saloon, located in Sturgis, South Dakota was housed on 30 acres of land, which Michael Ballard purchased in 1999. The indoor / outdoor bar included several large stages, a burn - out pit, a tattoo parlor, zip lines, a wrestling ring, restaurants, dozens of stores, hundreds of cabins for rent, and parking for thousands of motorcycles. It was open from late March / early April until mid-November ( weather permitting ), and was busiest during the annual week - long Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Each year, the first full week of August marks the beginning of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, during which time, the Saloon could average 20,000 guests each night. The series aired its fifth season with TruTV on December 2, 2013. After five successful seasons with the network, TruTV confirmed via Twitter that they did not shoot a sixth season in 2014. Reelz Channel announced that they would begin airing episodes on October 3, 2014. Reelz confirmed they would only be broadcasting classic episodes of the show from previous seasons. A massive fire destroyed the Full Throttle Saloon on September 8, 2015.

A sixth season will air on Destination America starting December 1, 2015. The sixth season will air on Tuesday nights on the network in the 10pm / 9 central time slot.
