I rode to work yesterday, and the bike got a lot of attention. I was surprised that several people commented that it looked like the 'Bat Bike' - and in a good way.

Has anybody come up with a good nickname for our beauty...?

That's funny! My neighbor is a Harley guy and he said mine looked like a bat bike as well.

Buell needs to release the detachable self powered side car attachment.

Personally, I don't know what new bike designs may be brewing for upcoming Bat flicks but the 1125 is way cooler than any of the Bat bikes I've seen thus far.

Wow, that is a cool looking Bat bike!
Must be awesome in a straight line.
Parts would probably cost an arm and both legs as well unless you're a playboy multi billionaire.
I still give the Buell my vote of preference : )

That is possibly the scariest, most disturbing Joker yet. Sweeet : )
I can't wait for this to be released.
I'm very pleased that Psycho Bat (American Psycho + Batman = Christian Bale) shall once again don the cowl of the dark Knight. He's the first one to successfully translate the whole "Wayne is the mask" concept.

Keaton was very close.
I'm not even going to say a anything about Kilmer or Clooney.
Except weeeeeak (of course the directors are more to blame I suppose)

Heath Ledger is an excellent joker IMO judging from the trailer I'm about to link...

*NO CAPES*

(obilgatory "Incredibles" Edna reference...)

Makes a lot of sense looking at those bat bikes (both of them).

From what I heard, his role as the Joker got so disturbing for him that he had troubles sleeping, even with sleeping pills, he'd only get 1 hour of shut eye at a time. He probably OD'd by accident.

Not trying to be insulting but all addicts use whatever excuse is handy at the time. I've been trying to quit chewing this blasted copenhagen for years and I always seem to find some excuse....wish I'd never tried it.

I think it was an accident. He was working on too many projects and was using the drugs to compensate. Same thing we do at my work but we have a doctors help and we are screened all the time. We have to use drugs to stay awake and drugs to go to sleep. All thanks to a rotating 12 hour shift. It can be easy to get carried away. I feel sorry for anyone caught up in it because its a terrible way to live.
