Talking to some of the Indian Club guys today they told me they liked the movie "The Worlds Fastest Indian". But hey said the spin off was that it had upped the price of buying one by about $10,000 and had increased the price of parts also.
Al the usual ones for me - Easy Rider, The Wild One (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047677/?ref_=nv_sr_1), all the original Mad Max series, Stone, Freebird, and on the rare occasions they crop up on late night TV the old biker exploitation films like Hells Angel 69 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064415/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2), Psychomania (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067630/?ref_=nv_sr_1), If, etc.
Mad Max 2 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082694/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1) had quite an influence on us when we saw that at the picyures and was directly responsible for a massive increase in the sale of matt black paint and the amount of surplus plastic body panels and windscreens that went into dustbins ;)
We were invited to be in Quadrophenia as at the time alot of our old mob rode British bikes and cafe racers, a couple of people from the film production company turned up at the pub we used to use asking us to take part as they coudn't find enough film extras who could both ride bikes and look the part-unfortunately we all thought it was an elaborate wind-up and missed our chance to be film stars!
