Ok. I need ideas for good motorcycle movies. Not biker "B" movies or movies that just happen to have a motorcycle scene in it.
Here are some that I have already thought of:
On Any Sunday
Wild Ones
Easy Riders
Roadside Prophets
One Week
World's Fastest Indian

The Motorcycle Diaries
For the first half of the movie it's a motorcycle movie. Maybe if he bought a Triumph instead of a Norton, he wouldn't have been p1ssed off at the unjustices of humanity and would not have become the murdering communist that he was.

I wonder if Mao, Stalin or Pol Pot had motorcycles? 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

I have no faith in human perfectability. I think that human exertion will have no appreciable effect upon humanity. Man is now only more active - not more happy - nor more wise, than he was 6000 years ago.

Hey Soren, remember the "Motorcycle Adventure Movies" thread you started about a year ago? You should be able to get some good ideas outta that thread! http://www.bonnevilleamerica.com/forums/...rt=all&vc=1

Yes, Barbwire , bought a Barbwire pinball machine from a strip club in Fort Polk Lousiana..$300 , the guys were spending more on the machine than dollars to the girls,,,fun machine but that might actually say more about the girls dancing in the club....any way, I bought it because it was the ONLY pinball machine I have ever found that had what could be called a Triumph motorcycle theme..  and the movie ? if you ever see it, you will never forget the acting !!!

"Dust to Glory" is pretty good. It's the Baja 1000 race, so
it's not ALL bikes.

It's not a 'B' movie, more of a 'Why?'

Harley Davidson and the Marlbro Man.
(Micky Rourk) (Don Johnson)
story line was a bit stupid but good bike parts. Espically like where Don leads the motor cop on a wild chase to her front door and after pegging her, Steals her old mans Harley.
Oh and its all on youtube.

Space Riders. Old movie from mid 1980's. Barry Sheene (RIP) was the main star. A cheesey movie but very enjoyable. Amazon has copies for sale.

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

The Ghost Rider 2 bike looks more like a V-Max. More proof the chopper craze is over.

You would think the chopper craze would be increasing, considering the economy. With all the empty parking lots there are finally places to turn them around. 
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

because i noticed this post the other day i took the time to watch a movie this afternoon that i probably would not have otherwise paid much attention to. this is a movie with Lou Diamond Phillips titled Lone Hero. its not really what you might call a "B" movie but if it had been done in the 60's it would have surely been. about a biker gang who's leader is Phillips and they try to take over a little town. i dont know if it meets your criteria but you might want to check it out. it is kinda good and held me to the T.V. to watch it all. Phillips does a pretty good job as the leader and i think its better than SOA 
ENJOY!!!!! NEWT!!!!!

Soren, I only seem to like crappy movies. I love motorcycle movies, just most of them are bad. I recently watched Cyclone with Heather Thomas. Wow, bad 80's Sci-Fi. I loved it. Plus the band Haunted Garage is in it.
