"Biker Gang" has to be the worst biker movie of all time. It was made in probably late 80's early 90's. | ||
| Whatever |
I always keep my bike perfectly upright while I try to slash someone with a switchblade because she drinks Mountain Dew... of course... That is really really funny. I might have to join Netflix so I can watch all the movies everyone has listed. I agree World's Fastest Indian is not a biker movie... it is a motorcyclist's movie. I feel there is a huge difference. People ask me all the time, "Are you a biker?" and I always answer the same, "NO, I am a motorcyclist." I see a biker as someone who is into the "lifestyle", wears inappropriate, inadequate or no gear at all, rides from bar to bar on poker runs, if they have a pillion they are usually of the trashy/ fake variety... scantily clad. They park the bike if it rains on them. The one trip they make a year is Sturgis or Daytona. They think loud = cool. Etc, etc, etc... And it doesn't have a lot to do with the brand they ride. I have a lot of friends who ride the big old HD's among other things and they are motorcyclists because TO RIDE some serious miles is the most important part of it. My friend Rich, for instance, has the long hair, bushy beard, grease under his fingernails... but he has two old HD baggers, a KLR, a Beemer, a Moto Guzzi and a handful of others... 100% motorcyclist, as he does three or more long distance trips a year and has ridden the KLR all over Central America and Newfoundland and Labrador. Keep the lists coming... (Message edited by Whatever on November 28, 2011) | ||

Funnily enough - I grabbed this from one of my vids earlier today. It's helmet cam of me returning a $50,000 Chopper to the shop after road testing for a magazine. My KLR is parked in their driveway. *That* is credibility baby!  And I think I'm a biker :-) | ||

Interesting to hear the differences between "biker" and "Motorcyclist"... add in those who ride sportbikes and there are "squids" also. Back OT- yes, Char, if you've not tried Netflix, you'd love it like I do just for the sheer variety they offer. When I put in a search for "motorcycle", they put up 68 pages! Plus, although my GF hates them, they've got a great range of documentaries. One of my faves is "Winnebago Man"... absolutely hilarious, ends with a really touching and meaningful sequence. | ||

" Being that I was about 7 or 8, that was the best movie on the planet at the time." hilarious, thanks for that comment | ||
| Whatever |
Dave, I seem to recall a photo of you a few years back wearing *assless* chaps... yeah I know they are all *assless* which is why I must repeat it... so you probably fit in the biker pool.  | ||

This one: http://youtu.be/BtJivzXzgAQ I guess it depends on what your definition of worst is. | ||

You gotta love Ogri!  And most of the Ogri strips I've seen have had him riding a cafe style bike... The German's I've worked with have referred to me as a biker. However both 'biker' and 'motorcyclist' translate (online at least) to 'Motorradfahrer'... In the past I would've classified myself as a biker, but now I'd have to say motorcyclist - while still retaining the attitude of a biker... FWIW - now back to your normal programming, 1313 | ||
| Whatever |
Brankin... you do have the *assless* chaps to prove it... I have seen them with my own two eyes... and they make me skeered... very skeered. | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
Assless pants or chaps, not both. I prefer the term assless pants. | ||

'I'd rather laugh with the Sinners than cry with the Saints' - Joel, B. | ||
| Whatever |
The entire point of calling them *assless* chaps is to be redundant redundant... lighten up a little Fatty... lol I found the perfect movie for you, Brankin, "I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle". This list is long... (am not responsible if links content is inappropriate for family viewing)... http://www.justcustombikes.com/bikermovies.htm | ||
| Ft_bstrd |
I WAS joking.  | ||

I am surprised no one has mentioned "Biker Boyz" yet. I found it to be unwatchable after about 10 minutes. There is also the "classic" Peter Fonda flick Dirty Angels...absolutely wretched. | ||

"I am surprised no one has mentioned "Biker Boyz" yet. I found it to be unwatchable after about 10 minutes. " You shouldnt be surprised, third post on the thread.... "I've not seen a lot of motorcycle based movies (that werent documentaries/races etc), but I can tell you two that are absolutely horrendous: torque biker boyz holy moly they are terrible and make sport bike riders look like dummies" | ||
